Yes - have to say it was probably the JADE GOODY effect. People wanted updating all day long as would be expected for a "big brother" contestant who had spent 24/7 being watched all her life after entering "The house"
This whole saga has been to PREPARE US ALL for life in a BIG BROTHER state where we are used to being filmed everywhere - at school - at work - on the train - on the roads - and eventually in our homes. Because we may well be a terrorist. After all why not have cameras in every room - if we have "nothing to hide" then we have "Nothing to fear" says the Orwellian UK Stasi under ACPO.
We are all on PRISON ISLAND UK awaiting OUR final solution. |

sure..Alfie wore out quickly but not for the want of trying. Had The Sun not been nixed in buying the tale it would run and run..just like Jade.
And it's been boasting to one and all...but mainly advertisers that their Alfie story received the greatest amount of hits on the web..ever.. for a newspaper.
It's become part of their advertising folklore..try it yourself. Ring up their advertising sales dept and they'll boast to you how they know how to attract readers to your advert.
Tales of a dying woman helps as well. Even if hundreds die every week from the same disease. |

The Alfie story wore out very quickly. The Sun owed much of it's success to their coverage of the Goody saga. |

from the Press Gazette:
"Sun Online overtook four of its rivals to become the most-visited national newspaper website in February, according to figures released today by ABCe."
The News International site, which was in fifth place in January, recorded a 118.2 per cent year-on-year increase in traffic to a record 27,327,957 unique users."

so tales of illicit child sex, rape, incest, footballer's wives (when they're having it with others)pour money into the tax-dodging Rupert Murdoch piggy banks located in Litchenstein, the Canaries etc.
And they don't even have to true as in the "Alfie" charade.
They should have Gary Glitter on a retainer..they'd be lost without him.
What's more..promote these stories and like Rebeccah Wade and you earn the bosses praise with promotion.
And just as Peter Breen, editor of Murdoch's Sunday Telegraph in Australia said "his job was on the line" when he published phoney nude photos of a politician..he meant of course if he didn't sell enough copies to pay for the cost of the pics he was toast. He succeeded brilliantly.
Rupert Murdoch..a 'moral' and conservative man.
But is it ethical ? |
