Who buys a newspaper?

What a lot of Guardian readers! Quelle surprise!
Telegraph here.

I hope you've noted that some read the Telegraph as well as the Guardian and vice versa - ie seek out a breadth of views. I certainly do, its really important for readers of one POV to see what others are saying:

it was bad when paywalls started cropping up everywhere, but you can generally read the articles the day after on other websites.

I have a print subscription to the Telegraph - a family newspaper since I was a child - and a digital sub to The Times. I have bonus subs with both papers that I have given to the DDs and one SinL so they read them too (online). Most days I do (attempt!) the D Tel cryptic crossword. I buy the D Tel every day, often from a newsagent in town who has a delivery round.

I regularly buy The Guardian on a Saturday and it lasts me the whole week.

Since DH died I make every effort to walk to local shop to buy a paper. It’s a mile there and back, I feel better for the exercise and fresh air. Return home and enjoy reading with a coffee.

Another fan of PressReader, from the local library, here. I read the Telegraph and the Guardian every day and then try to balance their views half way between them. I also can read papers from around the world, it’s so interesting seeing the same news event from another country’s viewpoint. When I’m abroad I can still read an English newspaper and I also get whichever magazines I choose. It’s a fabulous service.

OH buys one on a saturday for the telly magazine, if it was left to me ,I wouldn't bother.

I buy a Mail on Sunday, originally for the YOU Mag (love it) but often interesting medical articles and some actual news!

We used to get The Observer on Sundays for husband and The People for me as I like the crossword and puzzles.
No longer get the Observer.

I buy a newpaper every Tuesday and Saturday

I haven't regularly bought a paper version of the Guardian for years, but subscribe to get an online copy daily. One of my kids lives in mainland Europe, and I buy a paper copy to take with me when I visit, and we do the crosswords together.

Me too. But my husband prints out the The Times Concise crosswords and the codewords as I found it too easy to cheat online!!
.

We had the Sunday Times delivered for years but about a year ago my husband said he didn’t bother to read much of it all so we stopped. I miss the culture section most but we buy the 85p tv mag now.
We always read the local weekly paper in our library and often look at The Times in there too. The Sunday Tines is available to read from the Monday.

We get vouchers and papers delivered every day.

little humourous moments not honour.

Online now. Shell out for the Guardian to keep it going for all as a freebie.

Radio 4 news is excellent, better than TV. I do like the 5pm R4 news/current affairs - it has good news stories too, and little honour moments as well as hard news and the time for some depth..

We have a digital subscription with the Telegraph and an extra one for their puzzles. On Saturdays though I treat myself to the paper edition. It keeps me going all week.

The paper copies of the Guardian and Observer at the weekend. Otherwise it’s on line.

Every day including the weekend edition of the i newspaper. Purely for the crossword and the other puzzles. Hubby and me do them together over a coffee at various venues. Enjoy it now both retired.

We finally gave in and have only a digital subscription to The Times. It doesn’t feel the same but it was so expensive and we had so much paper to recycle

I read a digital paper every day, for free. Log on to the Pressreader app with your library card and you have free access to so many. I've not paid for one for many years.

DH buys the FT on Saturday but otherwise we're digital only with subs to the DT and the Times. We also get print magazines: New Scientist, Speccie, Private Eye, WSC.

My DH walks round the corner shop every morning for 2 papers The Mail and The Sun. We have a subscription for The Mail so its half price.

I pick up a free copy of the Metro Monday to Friday. Can't be bothered reading news on line.

I buy the I every Mon - Friday, The Guardian on Saurdays and the Sunday Times. I do love newspapers and would buy The Guardian every day if I was richer!
