The adver has gone more tabloid esq in recent times. Some ridiculous headlines and attempted shocking stories. Probably trying to shift copies since they whacked the price of it up.
Also need to employ the good old fashioned proof reader at times, articles being duplicated (probably to fill up space!) including the same letters on consecutive days on letter page, terrible typographical errors and one day last week in their TV sport section they detailed all the sport from the previous week!! It's gone downhill badly, but what do you expect when it is Oxford-based!!
