Vicar’s wife doesn’t understand the difference between wriitng a teaser in church magazine and deliberately misleading inexperienced young journalist.

Inexperienced young journalists learns that some people (even vicar’s wives) tell big fat fibs, to check the facts and to ask more and better questions.

Morality tale on why you shouldn’t take what people say at face value and why publicity mad vicar’s wives should keep their self-righeous view to themselves.

Story made it on to the DM website but not to the pages of the paper itself where the quality threshhold is a little higher.

Vicar’s wife writes teaser in church magazine about being a stripper which will then turn into a morality tale about judging people without understanding them.

She (presumably) encourages this teaser to be spread around local and national papers (by agreeing to do interviews and not giving them the spoiler up front). National newspapers then stir up their readers into a froth of judgmentalism (although a good number of comments suggest that there are not as many judgemental people as I sometimes fear). Wife reveals them for what they are – self-righteous knee-jerk sensationalists.

To be honest, a bit like shooting fish in a barrel. But I still like her style.
