Humour Don’t Sell Papers

I’ve just read today’s paper

It’s full of doom and gloom

Murders, killing, destruction, death

Children being groomed

Headlines blare out constantly

SEX FIEND IS EXPOSED

There’s so much negativity

(The paper I have closed)

Why can’t I read, enjoy myself

With lots of humour, rife?

Instead of being subjected to

This gutter side of life?

Humour don’t sell papers….

Oh…
