Knowing what sells

Try the actor John Cleese's comments on the British newspaper industry this week (quoted, without permission, courtesy of the Guardian):

Specifically excepting the Guardian, the Independent and the Daily Mirror, Cleese said: "The rest are the most appalling, depraved, disgusting, amoral creatures you could find anywhere outside of prison." He then added: "And of course many of them are going to be inside a prison soon.".

Accurate and sums it up nicely. Though I am not sure why the Daily Telegraph the Sunday Telegraph are excluded either- even if I do not agree with their opinions.

Waiting meanwhile for a commentary on the German tabloid "Bild" from someone here. Not sure that it will be forthcoming.
