Imagine getting up in the morning, and sitting for breakfast without a newspaper! The morning tea would lose its flavour. From the bedroom you hear the voice of the announcer over the radio telling you of the day's disaster. Just plain statements of facts, no details, no photographs, no editorials, no asides, no snide comments, no bouquets, no brickbats. How dull it would be!Slide6
