That is too broad to be taken to its whole meaning. The child abuse example is excessive doesn't help your cause. When the courts decide on breach of confidence/ misuse of private information, cases in terms of kiss and tell stories they do a balancing act of her right of freedom of expression, and his right to a private family life. If I was to do a balancing act then her right to tell the Sun about her bad date at Nandos, trumps his right not to be talked about in newspapers, in this incident, it was hardly the most private of information. Although I suspect you were speaking in general terms. This legal consideration pays homage to some ideas of liberalism. Newspapers printing stories about celebrities private lives is in the public interest, because without it there would be less newspapers, and democracy requires newspapers, to function properly.

Newspapers don't give a second's thought to the public interest and whilst I agree a democracy requires newspapers to function properly, that cannot be a state of affairs that currently subsists in any meaningful way. Our written press, far from the bastion of freedom that it likes to project itself as, is in fact, dysfunctional and should actually be a source of national shame. Your apparent defence of its right to broadly carry on with its current MO, suggests that this is a view you sadly do not share.

That doesn't mean I think we should impose legislation on the press , but perhaps if more liberal people were prepared to openly condemn such things as kiss and tell stores, then perhaps we would have a written press that more accurately reflects a modern, thriving democracy, rather than what we are currently pretty much forced to endure, which isn't fit for purpose imo.

The bold bit was directly paraphrased from a judge's argument, I thought it silly when I first read it, I just thought you might appreciate it ;)

The honest answer is I don't care, newspapers could do better things than report kiss and tell stories but it is the glitzy-glam, and celeb exposes that sells. People don't want to read well written but beige coloured investigative journalism it seems. Newspapers are just an exaggeration of TV channels, people would rather watch "I had sex with my transgendered pet dolphin" than an informative documentary. If people stop buying newspapers or visiting their websites they will have to change MO, but as long as they can sustain themselves on their current methods they will not change.Otherwise you need a culture of responsibility, but then that does a fuck load of good in the case of politicians.

Apparently, Wooney's new contract states that any female fans over 60 years of age applying for seasoncards will have to have their applications vetted by him.

Rooney & Paul Stretford must be pissing themselves silly with this deal they have landed.
6 months ago Rooney was a busted flush and on his way out of the swamp.
Amazing what a (very) good agent can do if the opportunity arises.
 
It's all goodness. £300k per week is money they can't spend on someone else.

Plus, he is very effective at maintaining their "most hated club" status. He's ideal for them really. They should try to sign John Terry to replace Rio Ferdinand as well.

I know an ex utd players lad and he told me that Rooney regrets not pushing through that transfer to City, whether its true i don't know
 
it seems to me the new contract is part of his old contract ie,his old contract states he must be the best player at the club,or its a big coincidence that mata signs and rooney gets a new contract a couple of days later,

Reading on regcafe that this is a win / win for the rags, if he performs for the next 5 years at the top level and if he isn't up to it and his body gives out they will just sell him. Yeah there will be a queue of clubs waiting to sign a 31 year old under performing fat granny shagger on £300k per year.

Haha, yeah a week, it's a joke isn't it
 
Desperation. Just like we were in the opening few years of the project.

Difference is we had a plan for an end game. Do you believe Moyes and Woodward have a fucking clue what their next step is?

The rags will score at least 4 tonight, Van Persil or no Van Persil, Vincent Tan should sack Ole Gunner Solcunter for rag arse licking. Daunting task, biggest club in the world... that's going to fucking inspire yer team! yer more interested in the rags than yer own fucking team you fucking weapon! Tan out! Solfuckingcunter out! Malky in! Ken Bates in!
