    Decent partnership of 37 between Dom Bess and Roelof van der Merwe sees us through to lunch. 102-8.

    Me too and that particular "journalist" represents all the worst aspects of the English psyche like being nationalistic and zenophobic, parochial, mean spirited, bigoted, selfish, nimby and a island mentality but none of the other wonderful qualities that this country's people also possess.

    I think it says a lot about the people who purchase The Sun too. How any Murdoch newspaper manages to make a profit I
    Indeed. Who needs paper news these days anyway? And tabloid papers are just propaganda sheets.

    The Sun is tame compared with the fascist supporting Express.

    Been reading the Telegraph recently? If that is not propaganda then I don´t know what is? In comparison the Evening Standard is tame.

    The clue is in the "who needs paper news?" question. So, no. I don't take paper newspapers when there is perfectly adequate good quality content from various sources online. Including newspaper media.

    Any media which seeks to do anything other than inform, with all known evidence, is dangerous. Opinion based media is worst of all. My call has always been, don't tell me what to think. Present me with the facts, and I will make up my own mind. Tabloid newspapers, and significant others, do anything but that. They have a political agenda which seeps through every word they publish.
