    If photojournalism interests you at all, you'd do worse than to take a look at Boston.Com they have some stunning pictures there.

    Click through some of the pictures of Haiti 70 days on or Chile 9 days on.

In Holland I get the NRC Handelsblad in the evenings, which is a very good newspaper.

    I'm looking for a paper that serves the following demographic;
    - educated professionals, international outlook
    - moderate right wing conservativish libertarianish
    - literate, able to find pictures of tits somewhere else (no Sun)
    - uninterested in celebrity gossip (no tabloids)
    - don't need political messages stuffed down my throat (so no grauniad or torygraph)

    Feel free to make flippant suggestions but I'd appreciate it if you also make a sensible suggestion. It doesn't necessarily need to be a British paper, but English language.
    Well you obviously know/have considered all the usual suspects.... all I can suggest from here is- The Arab News...
    It (roughly) meets your criteria:
    - educated professionals, international outlook : Tick
    - moderate right wing conservativish libertarianish : Tick-ish - depends what you consider moderate or libetarian
    - literate, able to find pictures of tits somewhere else (no Sun) : Yep No tits anywhere
    - uninterested in celebrity gossip (no tabloids) : Yep - odd story on celeb... but not recogniseable
    - don't need political messages stuffed down my throat (so no grauniad or torygraph) : Tick

    Oh Sorry and its got Hagar, Dilbert and a couple of other cartoons!!

    International Herald Tribune?

    Personally I stick to the daily mash and rely on regular CUK posters such as dim prawn and ATW to alert me to anything important.
