So, News International

hehehe....sometimes even I state the obvious...eg my rant about Oz bumpkins

There was an experiment where participants wrapped a kilo of week-old prawns in the Herald Sun, left them out in the sun for a further week, then got rid of them.

Afterwards 76% reported an improvement in the smell of the paper.

Newscorp International rakes in more than $3 billion a year, of which it's UK print publishing accounts for about 3%, so the entire "scandal" (as if we weren't already aware of the total lack of morality and ethics in tabloid "journalism") is just a drop in the ocean to them.

They'll throw someone under the bus - probably Rebecca Wade - as a sacrificial gesture, and then everything will get back to normal: idiots buying their sh!t papers, politicians cowardly deferring to their mighty power and influence.

Yep, Rebekah is a dead woman walking. She deserves it for that spelling alone.

Is she the bint with what looks like she has a huge orange tumbleweed attached to her head?

We call them women over here in civilisation.

But yes - she's Ryan Sidebottom's mother.

Ah yes, it would appear so...

Skully, you silly bunt.

She was famously arrested for beating up her then-husband, Eastenders' "Hard man" Ross Kemp.

At the same time, her paper, The Sun, was running a campaign to raise awareness for domestic violence.

Girl's a pro.

Heh.

I'm not sure I'd want to live in a place where beating up actors on Eastenders is the kind of thing that can get you arrested.

To be fair, it is probably her parents that spelt it that way.

At least she can line up a job with the Golden Arches as Mrs McDonald.

So...was she the editor that approved the use of the questionable material?

I heard she got a promotion afterwards.....that showbiz.

She's one of Rupert's golden children. I am sure Rupert would have shagged her at some stage.
