    Default Do you read newspapers?

    I think that over time more and more people are getting their news online. I know that I am more versed in current events these days just because I am online too much to avoid it if I tried. Generally, the newspapers I tend to read are the local sort of hipster weeklies for whatever city I am in and I tend to read those from the back, looking for what is happening in terms of nightlife and gallery openings and that sort of thing. What newspapers do you read?

    Yes, I read my local newspaper. I used to have a subscription but failed to pay it, so now I just pick it up at the store when I'm there. I always like to see which old criminal buddies of mine have lost their touch (and freedom.) I usually skip the overseas war news (as it rarely changes) and go right to the local news section.

    We got suckered into a subscription... so we get them everyday,
    read them, no... not really... mostly they pile up in front of the door (giving the illusion that we aren't here, for those who want to bother us) and every couple of days they pile up behind the door waiting for a chilly day to be burnt in the fireplace.

    I read the local paper once in a while, and when I'm at my boyfriend's parents house I read the New York Times (his dad is a subscriber).

    That's funny, the shitty tabloid paper here is also called the Sun. Their most popular bit is the 'Sunshine Girl', where they run photos of local bottle-blond plastic surgery victims in bad bikinis.

    How much you want to bet the readership of the 'tabloid' style paper in your city is more than twice that of the 'responsible daily'?
