Well its not 'The Independent'<BR/><BR/>I might buy it occasionally when I am travelling (to do the Codeword) - but its so full of appeasing sh*te these days I would not give it house room. <BR/><BR/>Take today's (Sundays) pathetic effort from somebody labelled 'political editor. And yesterday they had someone called Gordon Brown making all sots of daft excuses for the Prime Minister.<BR/><BR/>Total Crap.<BR/><BR/>Someone decent needs to buy it from the Barclay Bros. who are a pair of tossers.<BR/><BR/>The only section in its bloated weekend editions worth reading is the motoring section and even that is dominated by motor bikes and trivia.

Its coverage of the banking crisis was on the whole very good. And Simon Hoggart is gaining quite a following among us embittered old reactionaries.<BR/><BR/>But 40% of respondents watch QT EVERY WEEK? That is authentically disturbing. Does this 40% seriously expect any panellist to depart from the script that has been thrust into their hands, or does it consist of social anthropologists trained to intercept subliminal messages that are lost on the rest of us?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-24438752244169561372008-10-19T13:23:00.000+01:002008-10-19T13:23:00.000+01:00eyefan - don't think it was a category - everyone ...eyefan - don't think it was a category - everyone reads eye.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-82664730350415689942008-10-19T11:55:00.000+01:002008-10-19T11:55:00.000+01:00Wot!
