As everyone will have noticed, newspapers are increasingly struggling to attract any readership. This leads them to need to run silly campaigns, horror stories, and endless celebrity gossip. As far as I can tell it isn’t working, so just to gauge opinion, how often do you buy a newspaper? You can discuss which papers you buy and why below, but the frequency is what interests me.
Personally I buy one a couple of times a year at most, mainly when I have a long train journey…. Though recently the discovery of WiFi on Virgin trains has destroyed this need.
Edit: Picking up your free copy of the Metro at the tube station does not count as buying a paper.
