They get advertisers to pay for ads on the links, so every click where you go to see the clickbait tripe also sees the ads, and so increases their revenue.

However, as a scientist you would surely wish to be fully apprised as to the issues surrounding said newspaper and reasons as to why such a purchase could be described as morally flawed? You could then buy the rag with a sure and steadfast knowledge of being an utter f**kwit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knows what that rag stands for, what it has done in the past on many occasions to make people's lives a misery, and what they continue to do and stand for. Most people won't need that spelled out to them, but there will always be some who don't get it. Ignorance is bliss, it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Posted December 22, 2016 Report Share Posted December 22, 2016 Point is not to tell anyone what to think It's to protest at the disgusting behaviour and demand it stops in the only way they'll notice by hitting their corporate pockets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazil85 Posted December 22, 2016 Report Share Posted December 22, 2016 Good luck to him, no hard feelings towards him. Just didn't work out and he had the character to resign. (maybe should of done a bit sooner) Alex Rae on the other hand, no idea why he gets jobs in football as a pundit or anything else. His opinion means zero, to think he can make any kind of living out of football is crazy. Despicable human being, the way he acted at end of Dumbarton game was a disgrace.

No I dont read the paper but its really nothing to do with intelligence. My point was only about people trying to tell me what to do and what to think. The list of examples is endless. Dannys post was just one example. Nothing grinds my gears more than this which is why I responded the way I did.

I dont like what that paper stands for so I dont buy it. My choice. I dont need others "educating" me and Im certainly not about to educate others. Everyone should make their own minds up.

You responded in a rage for some reason to a general post. I find it rather odd, that's all. Anyway, without wanting to tell you what to do, have a Merry Christmas...
