If you read the Daily Mail and believed it you would think that the country is over run by illegal immigrants who are all claiming thousands in benefits.

The whole paper reads as if it was complied from the interminable chain emails we all get

I can see that I am in a minority here. We take the Times and the Telegraph for various reasons. The Mail is given to us on Tuesday for the Medical Info. I used to take the Observer but it became quite boring, we also tried the Independent but quickly found that it wasn't.

I watch/listen to the BBC News and I am well aware of the bias in all news formats but it is a case of filtering what is available and trying to keep an open mind. I find Channel Four news good.

Many people seem to be anti the Mail - most seem to be Guardian readers. It is of note that with such a left wing swell in this country the Left Wing papers are in financial trouble that is to say - the Guardian,The Independent and the Financial Times.

I prefer the Mail to other papers, but now only buy it on Saturday for the TV magazine. I used to like reading the question and answers section. and the lost and found section where people are sometimes re-united with old friends or family etc., from years ago.

All newspapers are full of a certain amount of rubbish but to me the Mirror and the Sun seem to carry more tripe than most. (Yes you used to be able to buy tripe in chip shops in Liverpool, so I assume other areas also sold it before the Chinese took over).

I've seen (I won't say bought) copies of the Daily Mail on occasions - good puzzle pages but where on earth do they find all the crap to fill it every day?

I've skipped through various articles whilst using it to to create firelighters to light the fire. It looks very female orientated.

I also remember the slogan "Every woman needs her Daily Mail" (or something like that) so I always assumed it was a womans newspaper.
