Questions for all those posters who seem to regard the Murdoch press as the arch villains of Australia and the world:

Why do more readers prefer the Herald Sun to The Age or the Daily Telegraph to SMH?

What would you like to do about the FACT that Australians seem to PREFER Murdoch’s papers to Fairfax papers? Impose censorship? Ban the Murdoch papers?

These are not rhetorical questions.

Why?

Well Steven, one reason many prefer the Daily Telegraph is because
it is a lot easier to read on the train & bus.

Fair point Bazz.

But there's nothing to stop the Fairfax newspapers adopting the tabloid format. The Guardian has already done so tho' they call it the "Berliner" format.
