To me, The New York Times is the best newspaper available (of all the ones that I’ve read in my short lifetime). Which tabloid newspaper do you think is the best, or closest in quality to The Times?
The Weekly World News, of course. Where else can we follow the stirring saga of Bat Boy? Who else keeps us informed about humans grown to astonishing proportions? And just this week, aliens captured the secret US moon base. How else would we have known?
You make of it, but have you read The New York Post? It’s not much better.
I do enjoy a good Chicago Sun-Times from time to time.
The Saturday edition of the St Louis Post-Dispatch is a tabloid. There are better newspapers, but there are also a lot worse newspapers.
Never read the Post, but I agree with MrVisible about the Weekly World News having some really “interesting” stories. Sometimes, I like to flip through it while I’m standing in line at the store.
One of my favorite headlines: “I watched in horror as a manatee ate my family.”
. . . Rather like asking, “who is the most talented of ‘Charlie’s Angels?’”
Another vote for The Weekly World News. I used to read it religiously up until the age of 13. And people wonder why I’m so warped.
I vote for the Sun, mostly on the strength of one headline that appeared several years ago:
“ACCORDION HAUNTED BY GHOST OF LAURENCE WELK.”
Newsday, by its height and width, is a tabloid.
does they NY times have Ed Anger?
no!
does the NY times have Dear Dottie?
No!!
does the NY times have sabrina sabak?
No!!!
does the NY times have artists’ depictions of Castro eatting worm burgers?
No!!!
I vote weekly world news.
I’d say my favorite is the Philadelphia Daily News. Why? I’m not exactly sure this is true, but I believe it: they are the only newspaper in America who has more sports writers than news writers (their sports section rocks but their news leaves a lot to be desired).
I’m also morbidly interested in the New York Post in that car-wreck kind of way. They are terribly biased, pride themselves on their celebrity gossip, and have probably the most warped definition of “news” than any other newspaper, but damned if I don’t read it every day.
The Weekly World News also had pics of Arafat’s “Love Nest”. That alone made it worth buying.
Yet another vote for the WWN!
