The MEN is a great regional newspaper…read more It's not perfect but it's ours and I personally love it. It's hard to see why they give it away for free in the city centre. But it does mean that EVERYONE in the city centre reads it! You can't get away from it, the only way to fend off the enthusiastic street vendors is to walk down the street holding a copy! But when you haven't got a copy, you do miss it. Bus journeys seem twice as long! Plus you'll end up being left out once you actually get to work! There's always at least one article that everyone is either outraged or hugely amused by! I really do generally enjoy reading it, sure there are mistakes but it's a regional newspaper so they have the bare minimum staff! Sure there are a lot of adverts but they give it away for free so they have to raise revenue somehow! The charity campaigns, as Emma-Louise has mentioned, are really well done. The 'Cash Back' campaign for Christies charity to reclaim £6.5 million from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme really captured the heart of Manchester and it was a huge success too! I love to see the paper doing well and I love to see Manchester getting behind it. Long live the MEN!

The Manchester Evening News (MEN) is a tabloid newspaper which is a local newspaper distributed…read morearound Manchester, in addition to local newspapers towns in Greater Manchester might have, for example I'm from Middleton and locally we have The Middleton Guardian, but on a large scale we have The Manchester Evening News. Most people in Manchester will have heard of and probably read the MEN, with a circulation of over 50,000 it is quite respectable for a local paper but only 1/16 of the readers of the London Evening Standard. The Manchester Evening News was always distributed free, up until January 2010, when between Manchester to Friday, it was handed out for free in the city centre in other locations, but now it is only free on Thursday's and Friday's, but still remains paid for outside of the city center, which is also giving those who don't live in the city centre a bad deal. I've always found the newspaper to be a typical tabloid, owned by the Mirror they focus on sport, and apart from that it is quite a poor paper, minus a few local articles which do get covered here, and it certainly isn't worth paying for, and sometimes it isn't even worth picking it up if it is free, the handing out of papers can get repetitive too, if you're going round the city center, you could meet half a dozen sales reps trying to hand you a "free" paper or trying to sell them, which is a waste of money. I'd like to offer MEN some advice to follow the approach of London, in setting up stands at train and tube stops, this means they don't have to pay wages of staff just to hand out papers, and they can be used in other roles, meaning the public don't feel harassed and this would save money too, meaning the newspaper could be free on more days, meaning they can make more money through advertising for example and make it overall a better local paper, this would help it to compete with other regional papers readership totals, such as the Evening Standard. Manchester does have a smaller population than London, but I don't see why the readership can't be doubled or trebled with a few right moves, but for now it is just below average and deserves 2 stars. I do like the feature how on Mothers Day and Fathers Day you can print a message in the paper for free online, but other than this and few good sport and local articles, this paper really isn't good for anything else.

Pretty much the only reason I visit now is to pick up a few pasties when I'm doing the lunch run and working from home (Dad, Brother & I all work in the same place 2/3 days a week). As a kid, I'd come in here close to every day and spend my hard earned pocket money - it either came from doing the dishes or scoring a goal at football - ok yes I was a little spoilt - but boy would it go quickly in here! Though that is probably a large part of why I tried so hard to score goals so perhaps my dad had something there.. anyway.
