There seems to be nothing the papers will not publish now. The camera are stuck in the faces of the bereaved, the tormented, the unstable, in fact anyone. There was a picture in the paper yesterday, of a couple who had drowned.It showed them locked in an embrace even after they were dead. Is this necessary? My 30 year old daughter was enraged, I was enraged. There should be bounderies, but it seems there are not. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised after the hacking of ,among others, Millie Dowler's phone.What do others think,should the freedom of the Press cover everything. In my opinion ..... NO!

It's down to either reporting or sensationalism......the former went long ago when Murdoch began printing lies, made up stories and showing topless models to sell papers. It's all down to a cheapening of life. I'd be enraged too......apparently people have no privacy even in death...the only way is if people stopped buying papers.....was it a tabloid?

Totally agree BC. I think showing that is particularly wrong. Makes me shudder just thinking of it, and I haven't seen it, thank goodness

There is a market for the gutter press. They have no morals and no decency but to some extent they are driven by the public who buy their papers. Cast your mind back a little to the Leverson enquiry. A public enquiry set up by cameron at a cost of £5.4 million to the British taxpayer, to bring the press into line. As usual with public enquiries, many recommendations were made and few were implimented. The press were left to regulate themselves again as we all know they are incapable of doing. So let us look at who needs the press on their side. Oh yes, politicians, those bullsh*ting, spineless liers who need the press to spread their worthless garbage to con the British public into voting for them at elections. The wonderful pillars of society who make false expense claims, take cash for questions, purger themselves and wouldn't know the truth if it smacked them in the mouth. Am I getting any warmer? Just the opinion of a pleb  |
