Well you can hardly accuse the Star of poor journalism, they don't even try. They just have a token amount of news so they can still call themselves a newspaper.

But yes, the Express and Wail are bad.
The Express is a good read though even if its POV sucks.

Oh how lucky we are for not having such a brand of yellow journalism over here...

We have sport journalism instead.

I have to confess to a certain sneaking admiration for The Sun.

On the lighter side, here's a blog of photos from local papers, uniformly depicting glum local councillors pointing at things that disappoint them. Enjoy.
