Perhaps I should have left "boyfriend" out of that last line.



I've just pissed myself laughing at that. Nearly everything in a newspaper is either a lie or an ignorant opinion. Even when they try to be factual they get it all wrong. Anyone who as been the subject of an newspaper article will tell you that they get most of names, dates, etc. wrong. They have no ethics. The so called journalists on the big papers are just typists for rich crooks and bent politicians.
I'm glad you had a laugh. So what you're saying that your favourite blog is better than your least favourite newspaper?

Everything you have written is just an opinion. You have backed nothing up with facts.

Newspapers in the "mainstream media" DO have ethics codes and DO have to meet legal requirements. Here's an example:
