Amanda Knox is guilty!

You may be aware that Amanda Knox has been cleared of murder.
However, if you’d stumbled upon the Daily Mail’s website, you would have thought otherwise.
This was published on the Mail’s website as soon as the judge said “Guilty”. However, he was referring to her being “guilty” of defamation, not murder.
Nevertheless, it appears that whoever publishes articles on the Mail’s website jumped the gun. A piece went up with the URL slug-words: Amanda-Knox-verdict-GUILTY-appeal-murder-conviction-rejected.
The artice has since been removed, but a screenshot was taken by @syn for posterity.
While it has captions including “Media scum”, what it interesting is that the Mail’s erroneous article has “quotes” from the prosecution.
The killer paragraph is:
Prosecutors were delighted with the verdict and said “Justice has been done” although they said on a “human factor it was sad two young people would be spending years in jail“
Clearly they would only make such comments upon there being a guilty verdict. Even ignoring the fact that she was innocent and so the quotes would never have been made, the timing of the article on its own (8:50 p.m.) would suggest that the “quotes” are fake.
[...] Mailwatch posts on how the Mail jumped the gun on the Amanda Knox and Raffaele Sollecito verdict here and [...]
I have a screen capture of the entire fraudulent Daily Mail article here: http://s1.proxy05.twitpic.com/photos/large/414455115.png
It makes you wonder how much of the Daily Mail’s reporting is fraudulent.
To make matters worse, the Daily Mail is censoring comments related to their major faux pas. I attempted to mention this several times and my comments were never posted. Looking through the other comments, no one else has mentioned the “other” story. It’s ironic that such a “newspaper” (for lack of a better word) would rely so heavily on censorship.
It’s even in their “House Rules”: “Do not insult other contributions or discuss the non-appearance or removal of any content on this Site or the suspension or termination of any users.” Apparently discussing the truth is against the rules.
“Apparently discussing the truth is against the rules.” Sums up the liberal mindset to a T.
