Mart	lol! And yet STILL they post a link to the video, quote heavily from the MEN story as did the Telegraph, and lower the standard of their own journalism by swearing. Also, if they had bothered to do their research properly, they might possibly have found out that this song oddly enough did not surface this week. Good job this week BBC,(not) great reporting on Hull the Queen and the story of an observationist pop song.
Phil	If I read in a newspaper that it is "Wednesday" I still have to verify it by looking at my callendar ..
JK2006	is that the whole point about it is that the media feeds off itself, inflating and exaggerating in order to get bigger and better headlines and more simplistic and dramatic coverage. And that's what they are doing with this story. "Vile Pervert believes Shipman was innocent". No I don't. No I don't say or sing that. I clearly say that it is possible he was not the demon created by the media. But that's less catchy for the reader or viewer... so they just adapt it a bit. Why not? The latest (taken by The Register from the BBC - it must be true if it's on the BBC ... just ask the Queen)... www.theregister.co.uk/2007/07/13/king_shipman_vid/
