Stoatwobbler Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Satire, but it sums up my own thoughts. Always find it odd that Right wingers don't go after the Mirror in the same way that lefties go after the Mail & Express. http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/news/society/phone-hacking-not-right-wing-2012102346061 HACKING a mobile phone is not the same as opposing gay marriage, it has emerged. As former newspaper the Daily Mirror was accused of intercepting celebrity phone messages, experts admitted the practice could be non-ideological. Professor Henry Brubaker said: “Every single one of our calculations pointed to phone hacking being the same as creationism or kicking a poor person in the mouth. We didn’t like the people who did it and so it was obvious they did it because of all the other reasons we didn’t like them. “However, it may actually have been caused by lazy journalists desperate to get stories so they wouldn’t get shouted at by their boss. Therefore we may have to conclude that lazy journalists can be both right and left wing. “And this is remarkable because surely it is only either left wing or right wing people who are lazy and dishonest. It can’t possibly be both.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoatwobbler Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 Don't they, what makes you say that? It's always the BBC or the Grauniad with right wingers. Why not the Mirror I don't know as that's far worse then either of those two publications. A tabloid propoganda rag is a tabloid propoganda rag, regardless of whether it's right or left wing.

Obelix Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 You have to hand it to the daily mash though, they really do write some hilarious stuff. Sort of the Spitting Image of the newspaper world they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
