Reading would be a bit of a strong word to use - browsing and looking at the pictures maybe Smiley Oh and laughing at the sad people who write in to "Dear Deidre" who make me look normal!!

Anyway where else could i get my weekly update of the whereabouts of Madeleine McCann's parents?

Probably in the Daily Mail as well I'd expect.

Mail doesn't have 'Turtle photos' sadly Sad Sad
They did have some nice picture stories about the house price boom (a miner who used his redundancy cheque to buy a house for £23 in 1985 has just sold it for £2.2 Million! He will use the proceeds to help the Mail in its 'Name and shame your local paediatricians' campaign.

Reading a paper means nothing about intelligence, the sun has it's market as does the mail, the difference being that mail readers actually believe they are superior to sun readers.
Which i think makes them more stupid than they think.
I don't buy papers anymore but i read the first available in the cafe, it could be any one of the mail, star, sun or the daily sport.
It matters little to me as they all have the same stories, except the sport has better pictures Cheesy
Oh and the sun has the best (and most accurate) sport coverage.
Funny cuz when Blues were looking for a new manager i used to check the sport because i thought as the blues owners own that paper they would be the most accurate, as it happens the sun were correct not the sport.

The s*n has nothing to do with being working class.  You can be working class and intelligent; or you can working class and a s*n reader.

Can you be intelligent and a sun reader?

That depends. As ifm points out, many S*n readers are not limited to that particular news vehicle, but also extend their educational reach by delving into a varied range of sources, such as "the mail, star, or the daily sport."

Horses for courses, I suppose, it depends on what particular segment of world media coverage a particular reader finds most interesting. For example, for S*n readers, it's probably tits and ass, whereas for 'Daily Sport' readers, it's tits and ass and football.

If, in the unfortunate event that you were wrongly prosecuted for a serious crime and brought before a jury, it is the same ones who would be deciding the small matter of your liberty.


ive served on a jury and found the cross section of people with whom i shared the responsiblity to be a shining example of the unequaled fairness this country has a right to be proud of.

Depends on what you look at the Sun for, if it is to pass the 20mins on the bus to work, look at some pointless reports and some tits thats fine. If you wanted to learn about whats happening in the world then you are nothing short of disillusion. I see nothing wrong with reading the Sun as long as you know what to make of the bullshit in it.

Funny how some people look down on this form of entertainment, because I can make an equal case for not reading most of the newspapers available in today's market.

Dare I say that you're in a minority of s*n readers?  Of course, not all readers of this 'newspaper' are lacking in intelligence.
