I love British newspapers! They're fun.
Never let it be said they don't get to the point...

Fleet Street (the home of British print media in London) pulls no punches... and don't forget to check out the Page Six girl in the Sun!

I love the Financial Times. I wish other papers would come in colors.
Aren't quite a few of those English papers sorta tabloids more obsessed with attacking any famous celebrity/politician than anything else?

LOL
Sorry just saw an article on FOXNews that is a great example of British humour...
Quote:
Meanwhile, the U.S. Air Force lifted an order barring its personnel from visiting London because of safety fears following the bombings, a directive that had caused some indignation in the city after it was reported by a newspaper.
The order had applied to Navy personnel as well as the 10,000 Air Force personnel at two major bases in eastern England; the Navy rescinded the order earlier, David Johnson, the embassy's charge d'affaires, told BBC radio.
In contrast, British officials urged Londoners to get on with their lives and not let themselves be overcome by fear.
The Daily Mail newspaper said in an editorial: "We trust the 4 million Americans who come to London each year are made of sterner stuff than the U.S. Air Force."

The print media moved away from Fleet Street years ago, and incidentally its Page Three.

I stand corrected, sir.
