The Official NOTW bullshite thread.

The news of the world is more or less UTTER bullshit, so I decided to start this thread.

To kick off,
Britney Spears to adopt Chinese twins



Now that's bullshit.

The NOTW is such a crappy paper, I stopped buying it years ago.

Unfortunately, Carole Malone has moved over to them and I used to really love her columns in the Sunday Mirror. I just pick up the NOTW now and read her column in the shops

You've got to hand it to them - even by the NOTW's low standards it's a classic.

Hee hee Good spot!

In reagrds to this thread... what amaze me is that there hasn't been a massive outcry about the abuse of the free press being propagated mainly by the Daily Star group, but also News International's tabloids... it appears that they feel the publicity/sales that result from their fabrications; and the fact that so many 'targets' rarely bother to challenge them... has given them free reign... what worries me, is that the self same tabloid press has so many readers!

Regards

Macca's dating Heather double

Macca's dating Heather double

More Bullshit, maybe


SIR Paul McCartney is secretly dating Hollywood babe Rosanna Arquette—the virtual DOUBLE of his estranged wife Heather Mills.

Macca, 65, enjoyed a romantic stroll with the blonde Pulp Fiction beauty this week.

And they shared a loving cuddle in the street as Paul tenderly kissed Rosanna goodbye after their day out.

Our photo is sure to shock Macca's other love interest, multi-millionairess Nancy Shevell, who enjoyed a similar intimate date with him three weeks ago.

Full story

There has been recently rumours of Britney Spears being up the duff for the third time, she claims its not true. However the NOTW have a story to keep this rumour alive and kicking.

Couldn't find any Bullshite in the NOTW this week, well not that's showbiz related.

Perhaps someone spotted something I missed? Anyone?

EDIT:

FOUND some total BS.

ED Balls says Spice Girls are role models.

And couldn't they give their readers the benefit of the doubt and make up something slighty less unbelievable. How stupid do they think the readers are? Oh yeah..... but this is the NOTW i suppose......

This really bothers me too. Also the way a tabloid will push its own particular point of view, couched in smarminess or pretend friendliness by drawing readers in to side with it by clever use of language. Usually one-sided and not reflecting the whole event, so that people actually go away with this impression that so and so says or thinks this. When there's actually no proof they've said anything or done anything.

It also bugs me how the tabs can turn a photo of say two people walking next one another into a full-blown romance and people believe it because they're tricked into thinking that way again, by clever wording and "sources" that are probably fabricated.

We literally exist on a diet of lies everyday in this country, getting false impressions of people and I think in a sense the tabloids have done their bit to make Britain a nastier, nosier, pushier and more rage-fuelled society because people are so quick to get angry at people through stories and they don't even understand why.

I should add I read certain gossip (like here) because it allows people to vent and that's what interests me more, people reactions to these stories, not the stories themselves so much. I like to see how much people can be taken in, or not by things. There are quite a lot of smart cookies here, which is what makes it enjoyable.

Yet more bull in todat's NOTW (every page is bull but page 7 is particularly bad)> It's about a Minister, Ed Balls? saying the Spice Girls are role models and the NOTW is saying it's a 'load of balls, er how about the eating disorders, broken marriages, raunchy modelling, lesbian groping, lying and shoplifting?'

It has a point about most of them but raunchy modelling and lesbian groping?? They've got a picture of a topless Geri Halliwell in there and a picture of Mel B snogging another woman. I can't believe that this hypocritical load of poo of a snooz-paper can complain about things like that and then they go and print pictures of naked and semi-naked women in it every week. They love it and they love the lesbian stuff too. Hypocrites!

I thought she had moved

I too don't buy the NOTW, it's just porn on a Sunday morning, not the sort of crap I want to be looking at over my breakfast.

I love Carole, don't know why she would go there. How unfortunate. It's an awful, awful rag.
