Daily Express Spin
Posted in Idling on 01/30/2008 09:44 pm by foolhandyOdd isn’t it how this Daily Express front page reads MUSLIM PLOT TO BEHEAD BRITON without mentioning (until paragraph seven anyway) that the headline could (should?) have read MUSLIM PLOT TO BEHEAD MUSLIM? Doesn’t have quite the same potential to stir up hatred does it?
And stir it up it does…if you can bear it have a look at the 61 (at time of writing) comments and witness the kind of debate the editors of the Express get their kicks from stirring up.
World’s Greatest Newspaper? Hmmm…

Who gave it the accolade of World’s Greatest Newspaper?
No way!

Go to their website (if you can bear it) and it’s their tagline… Really.

No, I can’t bare it.

Is it ‘bear’ or ‘bare’?

It’s bear. Unless The Daily Express is preventing you from mooning at people…
