Of all the ads in all the world... Humphrey Bogart's son sues Burberry - claiming they 'illegally' used images of the screen icon to sell coats

I bet you would never catch a law abiding website like Mail on-line using illegal images.

The DM following its normal editorial line that Cannabis is the cause of everything.. (it would certainly explain some of the stories in the DM!).

Probably belongs either in 'Mail misreads its public' (judging by the responses) or 'Headline vs Story'...


Of course trying to make out that cannabis was definitely the cause when there is no proof requires one to suspend reality by simply ignoring all other alternatives.

Has anyone done a study on the effects of the daily mail and mental health?

When Loaded started out there as a market for a general interest male-orientated magazine that wasn't pitched at aspirational wankers in Armani. There probably still is. Unfortunately, despite a decent start Loaded soon went for the lowest common denominator, and in doing so spawned a host of copyists, as well as helping kick-start that whole, horrible New Lad thing. It has a lot to answer for.

Beware the spy in the sky: After those Street View snoopers, Google and Apple use planes that can film you sunbathing in your back garden

The mail complains about snooping on peoples' privacy by taking unsolicited photographs of them.

When one of Nuts or Zoo came out (or possibly both) the editor was in the press making a big deal about how it wouldn't just be about tits. And for a bit, it wasn't and I bought it for a while as a reasonable men's magazine. Films, sport, gadgets, humour, interviews with comedians and the like and that. It was alright.

Within a few months it was tits tits tits tits tits.

See my post on previous page. Race to the bottom.

Besides, celeb interviews cost money and take time. Tits are cheap.*

*Indeed, even cheaper if you can get people to send pics of their own in. Thats why FHM has it's "High street honeys" thing - saves on hiring professional models.

This, to me, is one of the most depressing trends of recent times. My girlfriend is a social worker and its a constant problem of young (underage) girls taking pictures of themselves naked/topless to send to boyfriends who are often a lot older. The fact that mags such as Zoo/Nuts/FHM are full of these kind of pics gives it a kind of acceptability.

Lad culture is truly vile. I wish the likes of TrueLad and UniLad didn't exist. And all that low market misogyny.

I dont think the likes of Fhm encourage paedophillia though. I myself on the odd occasion buy FHM . I dont make a habit of it, but I don't think it makes me an awful person.

My one abiding wish is for anyone with that horrible attitude (and especially the writers) to come across the sort of Lads who don't just play at being sexist, loudmouthed drunks. Much as they revel in being misogynistic bullies, they all seem absolutely terrified of the prospect of real violence.

Sex acts on rows of boys ?

That's what they're saying.

It may be a bit more complicated than that, and have a lot to do with gang initiations...

It's certainly happening in Manchester in that context, with the local police trying to do something about it. No idea how you go about it, though.
