Shocking, and in a family newspaper like the Mail :lol:

Not one of the commenters seems to have noticed...

BREAKING NEWS: Shock as Great Train Robber Ronnie Biggs refused parole for being 'wholly unrepentant'

Not though how they've carefully re-worked the article:

Quote:

Great Train Robber Ronnie Biggs was refused parole today ...

The frail 79-year-old was widely expected to be released from prison this week following a recommendation from the parole board.

Jack Straw was widely expected to sign the 79-year-old's parole papers, which would have allowed him to be released into the care of a nursing home.

They're still showing their site poll asking "Can Andy Murray win Wimbledon?". Given that their headline is "Murray crashes out of Wimbledon" you'd think someone would have had the sense to remove it.

On March 15 we suggested that Inayat Bunglawala’s stabbing an intruder at his home questioned his suitability as a Government adviser on terrorism.

In fact Mr Bunglawala acted entirely in self-defence and no charges were brought against him.

Also, Mr Bunglawala does not support Al Qaeda or Abu Qatada as the article may have suggested.
We apologise to Mr Bunglawala for the distress caused and have agreed to pay him damages.

Buried as far down the page as they can possibly manage.

Yeah, it's literally on the last row of stories, which you have to scroll down a long way past about 100 other links for.

Fucking hilarious for the Daily Mail to be angry about people defending their homes, anyway.

If the typo isn't good enough, the text in black sounds just plain sinister...

Dude looks like an old lady! Aerosmith's Steven Tyler is a far cry from his famous rock image

"Dude looks like an old lady!"??

One fan on seeing the photo on a blog even cheekily called the 51-year-old rocker U.S comedienne 'Joan Rivers on an off day'.

This story - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... tside.html suddenly morphs -

Quote:

Dr Rusling, a father of five, is before a General Medical Council fitness to practise panel accused of having sexual relationships with two patients, and a surgery receptionist.
A COMPANY director battered his neighbour's dog to death with a garden hoe after repeatedly complaining about its ' yapping', a court heard yesterday

and later morphs back even more abruptly -

Quote:

Her solicitor Richard Orridge said relations between his client and 48-yearold Hill, who lived next door in a row of terraced cottages, were fine at first when he moved in four years earlier.
'That deteriorated, with issues arising mainly in connection with Mr Hill's complaints about dogs barking or leaving dog mess on his grass,' he said. Miss
Patient A, a grandmother, told the hearing: 'I had no sex drive before. I told him that I was dead from the neck down about sex.
'When he got dressed he assured me that I was not.'

This has been happening for months. Years maybe. Is it really beyond their capability to make an error degrade gracefully?

I'd always asumed that the reason the Mail loved her so much was because she appeared in a film about private boarding school girls, wearing a tiny schoolgirl uniform.

That's Mail porn that is.
