    Am I alone in having enough of the Tabloid coverage of Amy Winehouse Death? I first heard it on here when Nagy? posted it at the weekend, I followed the link and read about two paragraphs down when my interest started too wain. The Sun are still going with this as a front page story today, I wish they would go back to the usual format of Page3: Look at the TITS! Page4: We name and shame the people that looked at the TITS!

        Nope, I find it pretty tedious too. Wait a while though - the PM results will be in and it'll be "shock! AW took drugs!" for a couple of weeks.

          Hacker: Don't tell me about the press. I know exactly who reads the papers: The Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run the country; The Guardian is read by people who think they ought to run the country; The Times is read by the people who actually do run the country; The Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country; The Financial Times is read by people who own the country; The Morning Star is read by people who think the country ought to be run by another country; And The Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is. Sir Humphrey: Prime Minister, what about the people who read The Sun? Bernard: Sun readers don't care who runs the country, as long as she's got big tits.

              Well this is it, two weeks ago when she stumbled of the stage they were printing the pics and revelling in her demise. Now they are exclaiming 'Why wasn't she given support?'

                  Try my radical solution: don't read the red-top rags, ever. That way you are protected from reading all this crap.

                      I don't, but I get the Train in most days so I end up seeing the front page as most of the other commuters are reading it.

                        Ok so now you are complaining about reading someone else's newspaper on the train, I think the work irony comes in here somewhere. Take a book, stare out the window, play with your phone, snooze just don't read MY paper over my shoulder and then bitch about the content.

                          If you sit opposite me on the Train, looking at Page 3, how am I not suppose to notice the big picture of Amy Winehouse on the front?
