I only buy the Daily Mail for the codeword, a friend of mine introduced me
to them a long time ago and I've been hooked on them ever since, if I don't
get my daily fix, I cannot sleep at night!

There are a couple of the correspondents I usually read as well!

Ah the old 'crossword defence'. Won't wash, Alan. I buy the Torygraph
books of crosswords but would sooner stick pins in my eyes than buy the
paper Has the Mail yet finished its great ontological quest to divide
everything in the world into things that either cause or prevent cancer?

I have not found that regularly reading the Telegraph (though I never actually buy it) has made me vote Tory, and if anything I find myself even more of a zealot for liberal views in recent times. I do read it as "entertainment", and for intelligence on what the Tories are thinking. I look elsewhere to discover accurate information on news that is important, and for present liberal thinking.

Certainly not. If it did, it would no longer be able to brand
something a cause one week and a cure the next.

How do you confuse the editor of the DM?
