  Jim Hacker: Don’t tell me about the Press. I know exactly who reads the papers. The Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run the country; The Guardian is read by people who think they ought to run the country; The Times is read by the people who actually do run the country; The Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country; The Financial Times is read by people who own the country; The Morning Star is read by people who think the country ought to be run by another country; and The Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is.

  Sir Humphrey: Oh, and Prime Minister, what about the people who read The Sun?

  Bernard Woolley: Sun readers don’t care who runs the country as long as she’s got big tits.

  With the sun and the Daily Mail being so high this list is rather depressing.

    It’s probably way less depressing than the equivalent list from eighteen months ago.

  Anyone else shocked that 19% of people in “senior jobs and leadership positions” read the Daily Star??!!

  A more interesting statistic would be to ask how many people actually read a newspaper.

    41% of all adults and 60% of decision makers according to the article. But that includes online newspapers, and the number who actually named their favourite newspaper was far lower.

  The amount of daily mail here is too high.

  Evening Standard sounds really relaxing.

    Probably classed as a magazine rather than a newspaper?
