This is absolutely despicable. I've had it with News Corp they can get to strawberry float so far as I'm concerned.

Sky sub cancelled, never visiting one of their websites or reading one of the their publications again. I've never pirated before, but from now on I'm gonna torrent all their gooseberry fool and redistribute it even if I don't want to watch it.

What are my options for getting a dodgy foreign dish for watching Premier League games on?

Can always stream via sopcast - using an unwieldy combination of sopcast, VLC, TVersity and a 360 (probably ps3 too), you can still watch on the TV. Works for me, although obviously not in HD.

You feel that strongly about it that you are cancelling your sky subscription?

Fair play I guess, not many people who would do that!

And now evidence regarding Tommy Sheridan has been found. What a surprise!

Well, I'm scouse, so we already have our beefs with Murdoch and his scum-rags.

This is the straw that broke the camel's back.

Looking at gatting a Eurosat dish installed, with a box equivalent to the Sky+HD box with a 1TB HDD, a motorised dish and installation it's £500. I'll get all the Premier league games in HD without ever having to pay a monthly fee.

That's the first price I've been quoted too, so hopefully I'll be able to bring it down a bit from there.

strawberry float YOU MURDOCH!

Tends to print the even-more-sensationalist stuff if that's possible.

It's supposed to be the direct Sunday equivalent of, but it does come across more as a sister paper. When you pick up the Sunday Mirror or the Mail on Sunday for example, you know what paper you're reading, because it's nigh on identical to the weekday editions, albeit for the MOS more feature led. The News of the World in contrast is quite different to The Sun. The content is considerably more smuttier, the design template is very different... rather ironically, I've always found the NOTW to be a filthy newspaper too - as in, your hands are a mess after reading it.

Also amusing is the tiny column the times gave it.

I am proud of the many successful newspaper campaigns at the Sun and the News of the World under my editorship.


Who can forget the integrity you showed in openly publishing the names and addresses of alleged paedophiles up and down the UK in your rank toilet paper of a newspaper...the same misinformation that led your brain-dead 'readers' to commit acts of physical abuse, public threats and vigilantism against totally innocent people, including a completely innocent paediatrician. Lives ruined, innocent people facing death threats and criminal damage to their property.

I understand, because you've told us, you're rightly proud of that.

You were a shit-stirring harridan then, just as you are a cowardly liar now.

Hmmm, there's some sort of link between the papers that aren't giving coverage to it. Can't quite work out what it is though...

The Sun, News of the World, Daily Mail and Express should be banned.
Kelvin McKenzie should be hanged.

I think he's brilliant on the press preview on Sky News, especially when coupled with Stephen Pound. Always makes for an entertaining half hour.

I heard that Kelvin McKenzie pissed on dying people before stealing their wallets whilst simultaneously punching a policeman.

I'm going to write as much in my newspaper column.

He's up alongside Hitler and Bin Laden as people I'd most like to kick in the nuts until they could no longer breathe due to the pain.

You could only kick Hitler in the 'nut'.

So far this year, I have eaten NO mince pies.

He may be a good talker, but the damage he and his scum to do society is not worth it.

Honestly, if it came up on the News now that McKenzie had cancer and had two weeks to live I'd be all fist pumps and high fives.

Detestable sub-human banana split.
