Guardian/Times usually.

Greenlizard0 · 25 Oct 2009 at 19:58

The Times. If it's not there I don't mind the Guardian or Independent.

meghatronic · 25 Oct 2009 at 19:59

Usually the Inde, now boycotted ad infinitum. So back to Guardian.

(At uni used to read Inde, Guardian and Times as they were student prices).

Azagoth · 25 Oct 2009 at 20:00

The internet and The Times.

20p Times was great.

Independent is my newspaper of choice.

Few of the guys at work read the Sun and Mirror - I don't trust a newspaper you can read and fully absorb all of its "news" in 10-15 minutes.

The Times, but The Guardian definitely has the best supplements on a Sunday.

The Sun once argued in a defamation law suit that 'our readers don't really believe anything we write' - I think that speaks for its quality quite well

Don't really read the papers. Occasionally I'll pick up The Times or maybe The Guardian, but only for Brooker's column.

JRS · 25 Oct 2009 at 20:11

Generally, The Times. I sometimes glance at the Grauniad if I want a really good laugh.

Dev2 · 25 Oct 2009 at 20:14

Regarding British papers I would take the Guardian over the Times purely on the basis that I prefer not to buy Murdoch owned media.

In Ireland, the Irish Times. Easy, not that I have anything against the Independent.

For American media the I suppose New York Times. Yes, I know I'm a hypocrite but there isn't anything that can compare to the Times. It is quite simply the national paper of record.

The only paper I buy is the Irish Times and that is occasionally. I just read the rest online.

Bes · 25 Oct 2009 at 20:15

The Economist, FT, or Guardian.

So who's going to be the first to say the mail?

I don't tend to read papers, but if I did the Guardian or the Times.

My parents read the Daily Mail - they like the TV listings paper on a Saturday

Van Hellseek · 25 Oct 2009 at 20:23

The internet and TV provide all the news I need.

I tend to read the guardian about 3 times a week, but don't mind reading the times and when at University would quite often pick up both for the bargin price of 40p. The Times' sport section is a lot better than the guardian's though, but I really enjoy g2.
