    Guardian vs Telegraph Journos

    There's something about Guardian columnists that is beginning to get to me . It's the smug pics of themselves that accompany their articles. I mean, some of them practically sneer off the page at you. Take this one for instance:

    and compare it to the telegraph's lovely Bryony Gordon:

    I know who I'd rather start my day looking at.

    Guardian columnists are smug. They talk down to you. I won't read it.

      If you're buying a newspaper just to look at the pictures try the sun or daily mirror.

        Daily Sport is better. So I'm told.

          How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

            Charlie Brooker is one of the funniest journalists/writer/tv presenters in the country. His whole style is about sneering at things, he's basically a grumpy middle aged man... erm doesn't that ring any bells?
            The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

            But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

              She'd be pretty average over here. See much better just cycling to work.

                Charlie Brooker is very very funny.
                His column and the Bad Science column are the two best reasons for buying the Guardian

                Try reading his articles instead of looking at the pictures.
                I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
