Read all about it ?

I am curious as to what Daily or weekend Newspapers you guys take ?

I'll start. I take the Guardian in the week and on Sundays I read the Observer.
A bit predictable I guess. However, I have been known to sell my soul to the Murdoch monster occasionally when I might take the Sunday Times.

I read Yahoo News, which is actually a collection of various different national and international newspapers. I think the most popular source of Yahoo News is the Associated Press. The Associated Press itself, is just a name given to a bunch of different writers and reporters spread throughout the country. They are considered the most non-partisan group of reporters/writers.

I rarely read papers, they all have their strong biases. I prefer the BBC for news: it's not perfect, but when it is biased it's easy to see.
When I do get a paper, it's the Independent. They're slightly more objective than the competition (except on Iraq), but mainly I prefer them because they research their own stories rather than getting them from AP or Reuters, so they tend to have stories that aren't covered in other papers.

I see Reuters has been bought out.
