I like The Age more than the Herald Sun in terms of reporting quality, but the size of The Age makes it too inconvenient for me to try and read... I still voted for The Age even though I read the Herald Sun.

Hmm since the size appears to be a problem, is there a reason why the Age doesn't change that?

I heard TheAge was reducing its size a while back... Not sure if that is ever going to happen though.

And I voted TheAge, Herald Sun makes me stoopid

I don't actually mind the size of The Age. It's the only paper I read apart from MX on the train.

In my job I sometimes type up and reference news articles, and the company actively discourages us from referencing Herald Sun articles because "they're too melodramatic about everything" lol

I heard from someone once, that Herald Sun's size is copyrighted. WHich is why the age cant change their size to a similair size as the HS's
