DanClews Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 I don't read the sun for the quality journalism. I read it to make myself feel better.Just like when I would read the News of the World. I don't care that they did backhand payments, just give me gossip on what Celebrity Z said on their answerphone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Gold Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Pretty harrowing to see the comments section on that article being used to vent a bunch of Bernard Manning jokes that people seem to secretly love. "I'd rather have a bowl of coco pops!" - fucking hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On PURPOSE probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoonie Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Having browsed the EE websitre earlier, it's a miracle that any of the stuff on there is actually considered a story! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gladstone Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Fuck - I saw a story yesterday (I think it was in the EE) about a woman who decided to give up drinking for a month. She persuaded her mates to do the same. I can't believe that shit was in the newspaper. People must give up drink for a month all the time.

Guest Gladstone Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 http://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/Article.aspx/2759791 Yeah - that's the one. I think it's probably a valid story in that she's trying to campaign due to losing her Dad with an alcohol related illness and all, but the way story is actually written is ridiculous. Focussing on the fact she struggled to not drink for a month. I stopped drinking on 31 December 2011 and it's been a complete piece of piss. I've had breaks from alcohol a few times in my life because I get a bit sick of it and this time I think I've stopped for good. It mainly stems from the fact that my Dad has been battling an alcohol problem for the past 20 years or so and I can see the damage it can do.That story in the EE just looks so trivial though. The story should be about her campaign and there should be a one-liner saying that she gave up drink for a month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOX Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 The Evening Express makes stories out of planning applications all the time, most of them potential windfarms (a good source for a story since there's always someone on either side). But I'll agree that writing one on a casino's new door is a bit desperate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 The Desside Piper is what its all about. I remember, a few years back, the front page story was about a woman who needed someone to look after her pet bird while she went on holiday, but she couldn't find anyone.

Gypsum_Fantastic Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 There was one recently in the EE about a woman who lost her kid when picking her up from school. Lost her for about 10 minutes. Scary if you are the parent but that happened to me loads as a kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaaakkkeee Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I haven't drank since January. Where's the EE to make a story out of nothing and change facts when you need them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
