Do you ever buy a tabloid newspaper? Given the Leveson enquiry, why?

No tabloids just Guardian and Observer on a weekend. Mainly for sport so longing for the day when we have sport only daily papers like Italy and Spain

Ive read them in the past and would buy again if I was bored on the train. One person has never and will never make a difference.

Just to add to this, i think all news paper editors should have a resposibility to differentiate between what is in the public interest and whats interesting to the public.

never bought a tabloid never will
ahve bought the sunday/ times, guardian/observer, i, independent maybe 5 a year of each (tho times is too trashy these days- dont even start on the torygraph...)
id like to but too busy these days to read themhave intelligent educated mates who read tabloids
my mum reads the mail too, its trning er into a racist imhoi really hope the pcc gets replaced with a tough legislative defined watchdog similar to the bbfc or even ofcom after all this, a free press doesnt have to mean the constant drip-feed of racism, lies and life ruing tawdry trash that weve become accustomed to.
my only worry is that people like murdoch have their hands so far up our PMs backside that nothing will actually change

Going back a few years mind but the Telegraph used to be an informative and a good read.
Now its 50:50 advertising, short descriptive headline grabber then a few short paragraphs re-explaining what the title means or sometimes a totally different meaning to the headline above. 'MAN CHARGE WITH RAPE AND MURDER'
(inside) 'Joy Yates Landlord could soon be charged with her disappearance'.
They are all as bad as each other. No newspaper can be classed as having any moral high ground.
I'm also sick of the BBC's wall to wall coverage of talking up a recession. Have a read of this- http://www.ft.com/markets its not all dropping off a cliff face/'markets in turmoil' as reported by the Beeb.
I remember a whole week of this then immediately after they'd report on where the markets closed. All were up that week. FFS.

4.22pm: McMullan says he regrets the stories he did on Jennifer Elliott, the daughter of actor Denholm Elliott.
She became a drug user and started begging following the death of her father and the News of the World exposed this.
I really regret it because I'd got to know her very well and I really quite liked her. The fact she was begging outside Chalk Farm station came from a police officer, who had been surprised when he asked her to move on.
I went too far on that story. Someone crying out for help, not crying out for a News of the World reporter.
I then took her back to her flat and took a load of pictures of her topless.
Then she went on TV and described me as her boyfriend.
He adds:
When I heard a few years later that she'd killed herself I thought 'Yeah that's one I really regret.' But there's not many.
Sometimes I wouldn't have bought the News of the World even though I worked for it, but the British public carried on.

Its a leftwing version of the Daily Mail in my opinion.
I know what you mean - it's those screaming emotive front-page headlines, isn't it ?
Yes, the similarities between the Daily Mail and the Guardian are hard to ignore.

I also despise the guardian and mail in equal measure.
My in laws buy the mail. They're not foaming bigot types, I didn't get it. I asked them why. Apparently the mail has the best TV guide

That McMullan quote from Kimbers is shocking. At what point did he take responsibility for exploiting a very vulnerable person?
That inability to have a conscience is psychotic behaviour...Posted 5 months ago # -
Everytime I go to the in laws I pull out the Sun copies and flick innocently to pg3 noting the age and often say to myself quietly 'ah Melissa, 22 from Warrington has a nice rack'.
imagine the Guardians. 'Janet, 40 teacher from Stoke Newington in her union jacket and pleated long skirt showing the buns that she made early'.
Fwooooooarh

In the DM, there's a Chantelle on every street corner. Which one is your favourite?
