... as in, I've never taken a free newspaper that someone has thrust at me

Tom D., Tuesday, 17 July 2007 13:15 (eighteen years ago)

Yeah, where's the option for ARGH, ARGH, NONE, I HATE THEM ALL, ARGGGHHH!!!

Though actually, I'll read the Metro if I find it on the train, which is more than I can say for the others. Unless they've got big pictures of hotties like Boris Johnson on the cover.

metro: not thrust at you, also the best by a very long way (imo)

I read the Metro in the morning and the Londonpaper in the evening. If only the LP used the same ink as London Lite, cos I always get home covered in ink. But London Lite = London Shite, amirite?

I should have put a "Glare Angrily At Person Only Doing Their Job" option!

Dunno, something about the Lite bugs me. I think I just hate the columnists more than the LP ones. Sure, Metro is better than either (not saying much, obv), but I've already read that come home time. I should just read a book, I know.

The Lite can not shake off the taint of DAILY MAIL. This question really comes down to Rothmere vs Murdoch.

Look, my "JUST DOING MY JOB" does not include physically obstructing the path of people, especially people who very obviously HAVE NO HAND FREE TO TAKE YOUR SODDING PAPER.

I just can't get past the London "Lite" spelling error. It bothers me deeply. Like, if they can't even be bothered to get the spelling of their own title right, why should I trust them WRT news?

Or rather, celebrity tittle tattle and random feelgood or feelbad non-stories?

londonpaper distribution is so incredibly ruthless as to win by default (i only flick thru copies left on bus seats tho).
