    Yes i do,  you get a more detail & information than television.

    I certainly do . There's more information and human interest stories in them, than any web site. and the columnists , and the comics. .....the puzzles. .....love the entertainment section.


     Besides, I need them to line my cats' litter boxes, and to put on the floor in a few places where one of my cats pees on the basement floor. But, she poops in the litter box, so it's weird. And newspapers are good for packing dishes and glasses. And they're used to line the bottom of a bird cage. They have many other uses,.......such as making paper mache'

    You certainly get the most out of your newspaper. You know that a lot of them are rapidly losing circulation and probably will disappear within a decade? I hate to see that happen as I LOVE my newspaper too.

    Only  on Sunday  and then I get it  FREE !!!!

     ReadingNo Never as Peoplelover said dont belive in what they put!  ahve worked for the Media on and of for years dont belive in what you read

    melandrupert that's what i'm talking about. if a person dresses like us, we believe what they write. the washington post paper has been accused of helping start the war in iraq for printing a non truth. people that own papers and the media, want what they want and will lead us all to believe what they want weather its true or not in reality. so i believe we have to be open to various sources of information. and not let monopolies happen. people over in america are fighting communication monopolies all the time.

    Tabber how true in what you are saying! as you said we all persume if a person dresses like us (very good in making those words stand out) we all just persume... there is so much we dont know and probly never will... but this wont stop us thinking something just dont tick the box... thank you Tabber for your comment xxx

    No, newspaoers are life in 3D doom death and despair. One of my daughters was a journalist with a leading Brisbane paper and she says don`t believe half what you read and the other half is made up.

    No.


    I read it over the internet or TV. I get the Sunday paper, But I still don't read it.

    yep just the help wanted section, although i's very short these days...

    I only read the internet news.

    I read a large german regional newspaper and occasionally the on-line version.

    "" Yes I still read my local hometown newspaper.
