Indy fucks up again


Atrocious bog-rag The Independent scores a hat trick of errors with its reporting of George Michael's arrest. It renames his boyfriend Kenny Gloss, invents a new word, de-arrested, and claims GHB is 'liquid cannabis'. It's bad enough that the coterie of cranks, oddballs and lobotomees who make up its staff can't get their basic facts about science and politics in order, but this is a trivial story about a has-been pop star.

I don't know how this sorry excuse for a newspaper is managing to turn a profit. Oh, hang on, it isn't.

Comments:
WHAM!

what idiots.

down with the sickness.

and i disagree about your response to my comment. you clearly DO have a great imagination. paranoid people normally do!
 
That publication sounds de-arresting. HA HA HA HA HAAHAHHAAA!
The word is formidable and acceptable both!
 
Are they giving it away yet? Discriminating tramps prefer the Telegraph, you know...
 
If its so bad Foot Eater...

How come you reading it so much?
 
Do you think Hungbunny works for that newspaper, Foot Eater? It would explain a few of his asides on a certain topic.
 
Sarah: who's saying I'm paranoid? I want names.

SafeT: yes, you have a point there.

Ivan: welcome. Yes, I'm with you there, though the online version of the Telegraph sucks. The Indy is one of the few national newspapers which is still subscription-only for the full online text, but I doubt that'll continue long.

Monstee: I was wondering when someone would bring up that old chestnut. I read it because I'm directed there by various blogs which make fun of it.

GB: I'll have to reread some of Hungbunny's posts to get to the bottom of that cryptic remark of yours.
 
coterie?
 
Yes, dearest?
