    The Sun to look at, the examiner to read.

    I like to read different ones all the time though anything
    but the Sunday Indo.

    I'd go for the Irish Times, best unbiased news and sports coverage by far. The Indo is a load of ****, it's worse than any of the tabloids. Dub-centric, pretentious toss.

    Irish Examiner

    Otherwise, I will read pretty much anything with the notable exception of the Sunday Independent.

    Irish Mail on Sunday. Anyone who can put the boot into that Haiti Tech crowd one week and offer a free Philomena Begley CD the next is spot-on.

    1. Daily Mail
    2. Examiner
    3. Irish Times (news coverage good, editoral makes it the indo's cousin)
    4. The Sun, good for a laugh
    5. indo (nearly every story has the spin of it's owner in it)

    Mmm!

    The Indo by a mile!

    Would't even bother opening the Star or the Sunday World unless i want a laugh at the imagination they have.

    The Sun, the Times, and the Wall Street Journal are all part of the NewsCorp stable. I'm sure you're of the belief that there's nothing to distinguish between those three either?

    It's the Indo for me, and the media snobs can feck off!!

    All Murdoch's rags have the same message, some just have more fancy packaging than the others.

    Not quite sure I see the similarities myself to be honest. The Sun editorial policy was staunchly Labour until recently while the Journal routinely castigates the Obama administration for even the slightest of percieved shifts to the Left.
