Especially The Sun. Even as a teen in the 80s it was mainstream that that paper had a reputation for making stuff up & I don't think it's reputation has got any better
@AutisticMumTo3 my parents raised me right in the fact I've always dismissed Tabloids as disingenuous rags. The harder lesson was learning the so called Broadsheets are liars in their own way.
@Lazarou
My parents didn't teach me anything about newspapers. My dad used to by the Telegraph and the Times and I got to read them when he'd finished with them but there was never any discussion about them or their content or the content of the 6pm News on the BBC dad always had on the one TV in the house at 6pm every day
