25 Papers
One of our national secretaries mentioned in a newspaper article that he reads about 25 newspapers each day. First of all, I'd like to say: You're fucking fired!. I don't pay taxes so you can read papers all day. Second. how long does it take to read one newspaper? If it takes about an hour (read a few articles quickly enough, check some headlines, etc). it would take more than one day. He also mentioned he visited a restaurant in Kortrijk occasionally. I too am an occasional visitor of that restaurant. If I ever bump into him over there, I might just ask him.

One of them is a high-density, reading-intensive one without many pictures, it takes over half an hour, while the 2 free ones (MetroExpress and a look-a-like competitor) take about 5 minutes eac

With many civil servants I would prefer that they read newspapers rather than do harm by doing thier 'real job' ;-)
