What can you do when you're up against people like that?

Daily Mail readers ARE better than Mirror readers of course , but if the Brit public don't take to the streets about wars, immigration, credit-crunch, taxation and parliamentary corrupshun - I hardly think a 'buy the Sun' ban is gonna rattle any cages.

Is the Sun behind the military campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan ?

If so it's rather hypocritical to use a mother's grief to attack a Prime Minister who has sent a letter of condolence.

I assume they are encouraging families to feel proud when their sons and daughters are sent to serve in far off parts.

Personally I would try to dissuade any relative from joining up ( unless I didn't like them of course )

Often find The Sun in the staff room where I work. I only read the Dear Deidre bit for a laugh. Same goes with the Daily Star. The rest is utter trash.

The Daily Mirror's choice of typeface is so unpalatable I'm surprised they sell a single copy before anyone's made a judgement as to the content inside.
Report madsimon November 12, 2009 1:02 PM GMT
its simple you don't buy the Sun if you dont like it and you buy it if you do. To try and stop others from buying it is arrogant posturing

I rotate the papers I read, sometimes at random, sometimes I choose depending on the nature of news I want to read, (ie sport or politics or gossip or business etc), the point being if you swear by one paper over another then you are not getting balanced views. There are papers I do despise, but I will pick them up and see what they are saying. The sun is not so bad imo, but then again I don't read anything that they are trying to be serious about. a little football and gossip is ok here and there. The Express is the worst, largely because it is dull as fk and predictable as hell in scaremongering the middleclass fkwits that read it. Mail only slightly better. The observer can be a good read but you have to be prepared to read a lot of the smaller news and opinions. The star is unashamedly just a comic and so I find it hard to have a go at them. Telegraph for sports reviews, politics etc, and the mirror wins hands down for sports gossip/predictions.

Regardless you should read a wide variety of them imo.

Report johnnyrant November 12, 2009 4:02 PM GMT
Mirror infinitely superior to Sun cos it's an intelligent tabloid with excellent columnists like Tony Parsons, Oliver Holt and Derek McGovern.
While I detest the deification of celeb culture, politically the Mirror is very sound imo. It's left wing, anti-Cameron, and it was against an illegal war.
The Sun is pedalling a campaign to get Brown out and Cameron in. I'm no New Labour fan - think Blair royally scre*ed up this country, but the sickener is, the propoganda machine of The Sun, and with those circulation figures they can essentially get Cameron (a professional liar in the Blair mould whose entire image is a PR con) in, and he is guaranteed to f*ck things up even more.
