One-Nil To The Internet

From the Daily Mail:
Andrew Marr's decision to end the farce of his own super-injunction was welcomed by MPs and critics yesterday who said he had been 'hypocritical' to hide behind a cloak of secrecy while quizzing public figures.
Yet us bloggers already knew this, a fact which upset Marr very much:
"Most citizen journalism strikes me as nothing to do with journalism at all. A lot of bloggers seem to be socially inadequate, pimpled, single, slightly seedy, bald, cauliflower-nosed, young men sitting in their mother's basements and ranting. They are very angry people. OK – the country is full of very angry people. Many of us are angry people at times. Some of us are angry and drunk. But the so-called citizen journalism is the spewings and rantings of very drunk people late at night."
Marr's apology is the equivalent of "I'm only sorry because I've been caught out".

  1. All we need now is for someone based overseas to report on all the other super injunctions.
