There was a copy of Metro open on the bus floor today.
In it, there was a headline which ended in a question mark.
fuckers.

It's frustratingly bad journalism.
I wouldn't mind the free dailies so much if they at least tried.

They don't. Did you see the wrap-around, see-through, "innovative" Rogers cell phone ad that covered the front page of Dose a year or so back?

I didn't see that. It sounds horrid, though.
Dose, though, at least did not present itself as a newspaper.
Metro not only presents itself that way, but advertises as the only newspaper you need.

That newspaper pisses me off, really. I love how the bus ads call it "priceless". You want to know why it's priceless? Because it's FREE...which is good, because I can guarantee that no one would read it otherwise.

And that's why Marc shouldn't really be complaining... You gt what you pay for (usually).
