Today in Media we were analysing newspapers, tabloids and broadsheets, to see the contrast, blah blah blah.

Anyway we were reading through todays front cover and second page of The Sun and suddenly I was suffocated with anger. First of all the front page of the national newspaper, supposedly reserved for breaking news, was the story that Victoria Beckham had her hair cut. WOAH, CANCEL MY 2 O'CLOCK, I BETTER READ THIS. I don't give a damn so much it hurts!

Anyway the second page is the Sun's attempt at squashing world politics into an A4 size square so they can give a three-page spread to Victoria Beckham's barnet. There was a story about a new strain of the TB virus that was rife in Rumania, Estonia and other countries who will be joining the EU in may.

The Sun talked about these disease-ridden people 'flocking' (Excuse me but isn't that a term for livestock, not people? You racist idiots) to England to claim benefits, steal our women, jobs and leech off the NHS costing the taxpayers billions of cash that perhaps they would otherwise squander buying more daily publications containing celebrity gossip and indoctrinating filth.

The racist message obviously wasn't predominant and it was written in a reportive style but basically gave the message "foreigners come to our country", "They are ill so will claim on the NHS", "We pay for the NHS through taxes" - shock-horror the stupid fickle readers put two and two together and dislike immigrants because "The Sun says it will make us poorer and that".

This sort of racist propaganda would be better suited to 1938 Germany to spread the word of the foreign enemy. It is just a matter of time before tabloids are asking us to invade Poland.

I am sickened.

Is this applying for a UNI or applying for a job you're talking about?

I need to travel 3 hours a day for some lectures that I could have easily have read out a book in half an hour.

Tutorials are good, discussive fun though.

Well I'd say it's slightly more here at uni for my course than at A Levels. At least I had time to sleep then, tsk

Yup, A Levels/AS Levels are more work (and less expensive).

There's background readings etc for my subject as well, but you soon learn what you need to read and what can be ignored or skim read.

From what they say work experience counts a lot (as in anything part time/full time) - loads of people don't have any when they graduate.
