It's because he was never invited to any rainbow parties.

And when he finally was, he did it wrong and went dressed as Bungle.

I'd heard it was Zippy - but it wasn't an S&M Rainbow party, and he just looked silly.

This paper is partly to blame for the rise of this family as they normally have about 2 articles everyday about them. Don't write about them and they will go away.

There have been five other Kim stories on the homepage today (the usual 'she's wearing a dress!'; 'she's wearing trousers!' drivel)

And 97 articles mentioning her since the start of June.

I happened to watch a few minutes of that programme last night. (it was on in the takeaway I was picking up our tea from..)

One of the girls had been arrested for drink driving, but let out of prison due to overcrowding.(!) so to celebrate they all went out and got pissed.

No, no bad example there.

But what I hadn't twigged was that their dad was on OJ Simpson's defence team, and their mum was Nicole Brown Simpson's best friend. How on earth was someone so connected to the victim allowed to be involved in the trial? I'm sure it wouldn't be allowed over here.

There were a lot of odd things about that trial. Aside from the verdict, it seemed that pretty much everyone involved from Judge Ito down, went "screw the rules, this is showbiz!". La-la land indeed.

The Mail's campaign against porn continues with this advert for the latest issue of Playboy:

It's best to just look at the pics, otherwise you have to read sentences such as this:

And now Jenny McCarthy's approaching 40, she decided to revisit the raunchy years with another nude photoshoot for Hugh Hefner's publication once more.

Not exactly hypocrisy I guess but wasn't sure where else to put this:

Palace outrage as Australian magazine publishes intimate photographs of Prince William and Kate's island honeymoon

15 more pictures are printed inside and the couple are said to be feeling 'upset and betrayed'

Quote:

Photos shows Kate's taut stomach in a tiny black bikini and William in colourful board shorts

tiny black bikini? taut stomach? You can just sense the DM outrage as they salivate over pics they can't publish or link to. Yet.

Quote:

Oh well! Why is it only 'outrageous' because it's William and Kate? I have just seen the picture and a lot more intrusive ones are published on this site on a daily basis.

Sorry, but exactly how is this any worse than the unauthorised clandestine photos of other famous and not so famous people you publish every single day in the Mail? In fact, most of those seem to be far more intrusive and invasive.

I can't stand Moyles and agree with pretty much most of what is being said about him here, but just found the hypocrisy amusing!

Agreed. hate the man and his show, but from the description there, he sounds like prime DM material.

I too am glad he's gone, but if those factors are considered reason why he should have been disposed of long ago, then the mail should have been taken round the back of the barn and shot even sooner.
