In my home country of Scotworld, we have a tabloid rag called The Daily Record.
Think of it as The Mirror but worse, really worse.
The Mirror group own it, here is why i hate it :
The Razz - Scotland's answer to the 3AM GIRLS, shite.
Frequently makes national news for making up shit about popstars.
Starts sensationlist campaigns.
Billy Sloan has a section init.
Dissed Simon Amstell.

I hate the paper. They supported McManus as well simply because she was scottish. If a scottish person makes a go of it in England it makes front page news.

The Razz is utterly shit! Honestly, I could have been working for The Daily Record before I realised I wasn't a drunk.

I love the Daily Record, not as a paper but as the most sensationalist irrational tabloid. I find it hilarious at the paper's own self importance and how every-bloody-thing seems to happen in scotland. They are like that father in Goodness gracious me who says everything is Indian!
Its trash but it makes me giggle in a similar way that the Weekly World News or the National Enquirer in the US make me giggle. Its like a spoof of a paper.
Also my grandparents who i moved in with for a few years read it, theyre scottish. I buy the record when im travelling for a laugh and to remind me of living with them ha ha.
But i see your point totally.

Billy Sloane's level of pompus, up own arseness makes Dominic Mohan seem relatively likeable.

what pisses me off the most about the daily record is that on a sunday it becomes the sunday mail, not to be confused with the mail on sunday...
what's with that? incidentally you shouldn't be reading either.

I can't believe Billy Sloan has not yet been beaten to death by an angry, stick-wielding mob. There was a blissful period in the 1990s when he was ousted from the Record by a new editor, but he seems to have landed on his feet again, which is utterly inexplicable.
