Alcoblog Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 The Star should be viewed for what it is = GARBAGE! New front page banners for Star headline writers . . . 'MAN UPSET AT PIE FACTORY CONTRACT' 'TODDLER EATS OUT OF DATE PEAS' 'BUS STOP IS VERY MUCKY - STAR SPECIAL INVESTIGATION' 'MAN SUES KIER FOR WONKY SINK UNIT' 'ALCOBLOG POSTS ON SF UPSET ELDERLY MAN ON THE MANOR' Erm ... do you not read the Star? ... I've taken a centre spread advertisement out in the very same rag, apologising to the 'Man on the Manor'. After all ... it wasn't my fault his pet terrapin ate my nitroglycerine jelly shortly before he shook it to make its legs and head come out of its shell! We're now the best of friends and his hand graft seems to be improving on a daily basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickywiggle Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 i think postcode gazette may be giving them a run for their money. i can't remember the exact ones but there have been some real non-stories on their recently. then you get 2 stories on the same day by 2 different people but basically saying exactly the same. and my top fav had to be one at 1am (or somewhere abouts) on Monday about how children had started back at xx school today and done xx.....how when the school doors hadn't opened??

chem1st Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Earlier today I was walking along a pavement. Next to the pavement was a road. On the road was a pedestrian crossing. I saw some pedestrians cross the road without using the crossing. I was quite distressed by this and think I should contact the star. Do you think it is worth it? How likely would I be to get my 15 minutes of fame (a photo of me looking glum pointing at a pedestrian crossing)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llamado Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 My child goes to local school and had 6 lessons in whole day. Should I contact The Star? Maybe a picture of me pointing at the school with my child looking glum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verydull Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 http://www.thestar.co.uk/community/beggars_plague_fed_up_shoppers_1_3806917 1) the person in the picture is not begging, just sitting down on their bag. there is a big difference between begging and homelessness. 2) there needs to be a scheme like in manchester where there are big orange boxes to put money in, instead of giving it directly to homeless people. 3) I personally will report every instance of begging. Unfortunately the only people I ever see begging on the street stand on fargate with clipboards. 4) the star need to do better with the blanking of the face... you can see who it is in the window...
