The Observer
Posted: Sun May 25, 2025 9:41 pm
For the first time since the Tortoise takeover, I have finally got round to taking a proper look at the all-new, washes whiter Observer.
Admittedly, my initial reaction was that it is an underwhelming, weekly blog, but an afternoon's clickery has begun to win me over. It feels like what a Sunday newspaper used to represent - a considered, deeper take on broader events which will not go stale before Kill The Midwife comes on the telly. Obviously, I have only seen the digital output so that is the only yard-stick I have, and it does feel like it is lacking in width, but I will be back for more.
Thoughts?
