I'm curious.

I never see anyone at college reading a newspaper and I'm undecided whether this is because news is so easily available for free online or that students simply don't care about the news. Sadly, I think it might be the latter...

I read the Times usually.

I'm guessing you don't class the advert as a newspaper? who does?

I meant national newspaper, I get the Adver all the time, it's not actually too bad for a local rag.

My old man reads the Daily Mail.

I used to read the guardian when I was at uni quite a lot. Only ever really the G2 section and to do the kakuro though. It was only 20p for students which helped to.

Radio 4 is always on in the background in my house so I keep up to date with the news through that.

Interestingly Paul Davis is talking about life on other planets right now.

If I'm on the train it'll be the Metro, get the Adver through the door and it's equally shite so just skim read that and mother gets the fucking Daily Mail so I don't read much newspaper stuff. I'll bung the news on instead if I'm bothered.

I'll usually buy the Independent if I want a proper read - The Times is a bit too dull for my tastes.

Sun and Guardian during the week, NOTW and Observer on Sundays. Probably just set myself up for a ripping from Spacey.

I do sometimes, it's good to balance my lefty views. Normally it's just laughable though so it doesn't help.

I didn't vote for it though.
