when I was much younger I used to.Not any more.
The gossip keep getting worse every day.
Remember every Sunday on my walk.Stop at the store and picked up a cope of the Inquirer
This was my Sunday reading there.Now it has gotten worse.
Do you enjoy reading gossip newspaper?

@amadeo Not really. Mainly because a lot of it is just exaggeration or straight out lies. Some can be interesting to read but it's not common for me to read.

True, and clever manipulation by the journalists to conform to their views. Recently there was a case of Me too. Journalist mentioned eye witness supporting it. I almost condemned the guy. Then I read what the eyewitness who herself was a journalist mentioned. She clearly mentioned she reached the place AFTER the event. Then how did she become eyewitness? Beat me...not really. Whoever called her eyewitness obviously sold more copies than the rest.

I used to read the headlines when on line at the supermarket. All those gossip rags were on display and it was a good way to pass the time when standing in line.

I used to like the Weekly World News, but I don't think it's around anymore. Those articles were so far-fetched and ridiculous!

I am not a fan of it and don't make it as a part of my regular reading. But if my eye catches those gossips or spicy controversies in newspaper and magazines, I read it and I enjoy it too.
The Hollywood and Bollywood gossips and controversies are a good light read and sometimes I prefer them over the serous political and social news.
