Letters to the EditorTabloid Readers Are Traitors
I despair when I see my fellow workers commuting, or during tea break,Daily Telegraph in hand. To think that a goodly portion of that daily dollar outlay is going back to Murdoch to fund more of the same. Murdoch despises us. so why do we buy his products? So we can continue to read his insults? What does that say about us? I don't buy the Telegraph. Or the Australian. Do you? Or your friends? As john would say, you know what I mean! Ray Osborn
