Metro Newspaper

Reason for annoyance:

"Written by morons for morons"

"These plebs [people who write in to this paper] clearly need to be removed from the gene pool. Having said that, today's Independent (free from my hotel, naturally I wouldn't buy this bollocks) could give the Metro a run for it's money in the arena of banal letters - and articles for that matter."

About Metro Newspaper:

Metro is a perfect mix of national and international news wrapped around local information - listings, travel and weather. Metro contains everything you'd expect from a daily newspaper but in a much more digestible format.

Metro has been designed to be read in the 20 minute 'Metro Moment' (usually the journey to work). Metro's news stories are written in a concise sound bite style, ensuring that the reader can take in all the key facts in a short informative read. Metro's editorial content is also free from political spin and focuses on giving readers the news they need at the time they read, rather than providing comment or views.

Metro calls its core target audience 'Urbanites'. These are young, affluent, professional people who live active and ambitious lives. They embrace and enjoy city living and the rewards and excitements this brings.


FACT: Metro Newspaper is more irritating than The Great Khaali but less irritating than Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham

You may also find DFS irritating.

It's f**king annoying because every year they cover the Student Union in Edinburgh with a big Metro logo to advertise the fact they are sponsoring it as an Edinburgh Festival venue. So every year for three weeks Teviot looks like a big copy of the Metro, sitting near my flat.

I like it because its journalists are too lazy to do background checks on press releases they receive. So when I sent them a "press release" to publish my website it got published verbatim in Metro Scotland! Roxxor!
