I had a sixth form Economics teacher who read the daily mail, He advocated that reading a paper you dissagreed with was the best for developing your mental faculties and making you think.
Exactly.
I read either the Indy (which does what it says on the tin, but is very, very boring indeed), or the Telegraph, which gives me a very good idea of how the enemy thinks and behaves.
Good sports coverage too.
Their spoof reporter Bryony Gordon is hilarious – bit obvious though, as if anyone would give a job to such a vaccuous, airheaded non-entity in real life.
As for the Mail – it panders to and reinforces the opinions of those sad, nasty, small minded, interfering, paranoid, hate filled Little Englanders who are bloody proud that they exemplify the worst traits of humanity. 🙂
And for all those on this thread who read, enjoy and believe what it prints, that’s you, btw. 😀
