Totally OT but I dislike this trending lark, especially on a person who was killed, just feel its a bit crass.
It's disgraceful and vile what has come out. They're the lowest of the low.

It means that people are getting the info out... I don't believe they are revelling in her death... Quite the opposite.....
over 1000 people joined one of the FB groups calling for a boycott in less than an hour for example...

I would put large sums of money on this being nowhere near the worst thing they have done, tbh.

Indeed, but (as mentioned on the other thread, and as I am sure most are already aware), this phone-hacking habit of theirs really is at the gentle end of what they were / lets face it probably still are getting up to.

i'm beginning to warm to this bloke. He may be a complete new labour apparatchik, but he did try to fuck Blair up, resigned over it, and has been brilliant over this scandal (i.e. phone-hacking)

Apparently the Daily Mail is now running the story on page 8....wonder why they changed their minds?

i don't think it would work. the intensity of the anger that will be felt nationwide over this is as nothing to the intensity of the anger on merseyside when the vile Hillsborough pieces came out. After Littlejohn's piece especially, the switchboard was jammed with calls from psychotically angry scousers threatening to string him up, so much so that our Brave Fearless Teller Of Truth spent the whole day curled up under his desk crying and whimpering with fear.apols... been scan reading...

This, on the other hand, is too diffuse; whilst many will be disgusted, few will feel moved to a lifetime of cold, murderous rage, as with happened with Hillsborough, simply because only a handful of people in this case have a personal connection; there, it involved a large slice of the northwest's second city
