It may interest you to know that, come 1990, I was anticipating going through puberty about 5 or more years in the future.

But otherwise, fair point.

I know someone who finished doing freelancing for the Mail on Sunday a few weeks ago with the words: ''I owe the world 5 months of socialism''. He also does freelancing for The Guardian, occasionally. He told me that he wanted to drown Jan Moir in loo-vomit, on his last day at the Mail. I suggested to him that he should have dumped a dead gay in her bedroom, and then write on a national newspaper about it.

What a whiner. Man and the radiator comment about it being "ancient" and not getting what she wants. This *girl* acts like she's a rich 5-year old and hasn't embraced what normal folk living is. The subway resembles a bowl of dropped spaghetti? The bitch probably hasn't even been on a subway in her life, so no shit. Too "poor" for her class

Curiously enough, the political dynamics of UK newspapers interests me a bit more than the dynamics of American papers. Of course the disposition of the popular right to sensational vanity carries over.

I get the sense that polarisation occurs in America through radio and cable TV whereas over here its The Mail, Guardian, Telegraph etc.

It is when compared to the number that reads "The Guardian", but then more people read "Flower Arranging Monthly" than "The Guardian". :)

I find both papers despicable in their own ways. The Daily Mail because it's a package of hatred daily shitting on anything resembling human dignity. The Guardian for being a spineless timewaster with the occasional moment of brilliance, which happens too seldom to classify as genuine, or at least relevant to the reputation it aims to maintain, opposition.

We've got the conservative Wall Street Journal, the liberal turned neocon Washington Post, the center-left New York Times, etc.

And the popular right, of course: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9go38MgZ4w8

Same goes for a lot of the popular left, I'm afraid.

My point is The Daily Mail clearly appeals to a helluva lot more people than The Guardian does. In fact all, bar one, of the other UK papers appeals to a lot more people than The Guardian does. One would think The Guardian was an underground paper.

knox 12.23.2009 02:04 PM

and the point is?
