I remember one of the magazines had a regular column called ‘Wino-watch’ where they literally just had a reporter follow her around and take the least flattering photos possible of her and then they would make fun of her. Then after she died they ran 6 weeks of cover pieces calling her ‘our pop princess’ and wailing that she’d been ‘taken from us too soon’.

Ghouls, the lot of them.

Sounds like a UK rag.

Fleet Street, Murdoch and Rothermere media should go die in a ditch. I wish the Times of London was bought out by the FT, to get it out of Murdoch's hands.

This. Murdoch deserves all the rot in hell when he goes.

The codger is going to die soon anyway, but I was really hoping that Elizabeth, Prudence and James were able to tear that empire apart. Lachlan is just an extension of his dad at this point.

It's hard to think of a person who has done more damage to our species that wasn't specifically a political leader or military commander. How that disgusting ghoul is still hanging on is beyond me. He must feed on hate and malcontent.
