High brow, didn't expect you to read The Sun anyway

With Remy on the whole business/economics thing, but don't read it in papers usually, just watch the bit they do on Sky News

I usually use websites/TV news for general news though, I never really bother with papers unless I get it free

And sometimes.

I sometimes read my local newspaper, but as for the Sun etc.. not really; all they ever seem to go on about is politicians and random crap.
