Those Newspaper Freebies Unwrapped
REASONS why you should buy a newspaper: No. 1 – because they give you “free” things you really want:
A look at today’s offers:
DAILY TELEGRAPH: “FREE INSIDE – How To Photograph Absolutely Everything”
Take photos of the Loch Ness Monster, Osama bin Laden and the dark side of the moon – guaranteed!
DAILY MAIL: “FREE INSIDE – Michael Caine DVD.” It’s the Whistle Blower. Heard of it? for those of you that haven’t, a look at the imdb tells us:
Some time ago I bought this movie for just 3 euro’s. This low price was probably already a secret sign saying: ‘Don’t buy this one boy…!!’ But still, Michael Caine starred in it..a respectable actor…I gave it a try.
I put it in the DVD player and pushed the play button…This movie has no story, no goal, no suspense , no action, just nothing. Just meaningless dialogues and strange people. Now I am a nice and positive guy but this film really has to be one of the lousiest movies EVER made.
A FREE JAM JAR COASTER FOR EVERY READER

I thought the presidential election in Zimbabwe had already been held and that Mugabe had not released the result because it obviously wasn’t in his favour, or have I missed something…?

The Sun brought out a polish language special edition for Poland, what about a special edition for Zimbabwe with a free election freebie. That’s the kind of freebie that won’t get thrownabwe. When there are freedoms readers want why do newspapers waste with unwanted freebies ?

BBC reports Morgan Tsvangirai: ‘I think that elections will be held, but they will be held under circumstances of high levels of intolerance, high levels of violence and intimidation, and lack of access by the opposition to the state media. I think that the question of “free and fair” - the conditions are not there for it. ‘
