Who reads the papers....

A little British humour...


Sir Humphrey Appleby: The only way to understand the press is to remember that they pander to their reader's prejudices.

Prime Minister James Hacker: Don't tell me about the press. I know exactly who reads the papers. The Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run the country. The Guardian is read by people who think they ought to run the country. The Times is read by people who actually do run the country. The Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country. The Financial Times is read by people who own the country. The Morning Star is read by people who think that the country ought to be run by another country. The Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is.

Sir Humphrey Appleby (smiling): Then Prime Minister, what about the people who read The Sun?

Bernard Woolley: The Sun readers dont care who runs the country as long as she's got big tits.
