    Todays trial

    So this morning I opted for the Guardian. I enjoyed the read although its a bit of a slow news day, didn't get through it though as I was constructing an email for half the journey, so can't comment too much.

    However one funny quote from the front page, about how British interrogators are using inhumane techniques, "they make them watch porn, from DVD's".

I tried the Times, but its a bit to right wing.

    Any suggestions?
