The Guardinianista’s are up in arms about the Sun’s frontpage:
But not too bothered about the Star:
The Guardian’s Paul Harris though is most upset to see similar frontpages in New York and says:
‘But after having read about the scandal in the UK, what I was not expecting to see as I walked to work in New York was the same offence repeated in New York’s daily newspapers – and, apparently, not a word of anger about it.’
Possibly the lack of interest in the Star’s frontpage and the American’s lack of outrage is connected…neither are related to Murdoch or News International….that is purely a BBC, Guardian and Fellow Traveller’s bête noire…no one else is really interested.
The Guardian itself seems entirely unconcerned about the Hard Left Mirror’s frontpage which seesm even more in bad taste….almost celebrating guns, being titled ‘BladeGunner’:
At least someone else noticed:
Blimey! Daily Mirror front page… “Blade Gunner” pic.twitter.com/fQmieHuE
The BBC itself is happy to use a not too dissimilar in style photo in their write up:
Nice to see the beeb appealing to our intellects with that page 3-like picture, just when Rupe is starting to cave in to the feminazis.

Ah, but as Alinsky says, the issue is not the issue. That is, if getting all indignant about certain photographs in their enemy’s newspapers helps their cause in harming their enemy then they (bbc, guardian, and all the usual suspects) will follow that line. Once its usefulness has worn off, then they won’t care less what pictures are published. They couldn’t care less if the photographs are in bad taste, or that the poor girl’s family is affronted by their publication, the socialists only follow the agenda; to destroy all who disagree with them. By any means available. And that’s why the bbc does what it does, on all matters; the climate, the EU, Israel, Obama, islam, the NHS, News International, everything everywhere all the time. No principles, no truth, no morals, no sense of right and wrong, no basis for trust and integrity, no firm beliefs to which they can be held to account. Just hatred and an unquenchable thirst to destroy Western civilisation.

It appears South African TV are today broadcasting a Reality Show filmed in the Caribbean in which Reeva Steenkamp took part as a contestant. The programme has been broadcast with the approval of her family who consider it will be a tribute to her. I’m not sure if South African TV is quite as broadminded as British TV over the content of it’s Reality shows but I very much doubt Miss Steenkamp will be appearing dressed head to toe like a nun. The woman was known for her beauty and was obvioulsy not ashamed to show it and her family as obvioulsy of the same attitude. That, if nothing else, shows the hypocrisy of the B-BBC in using the issue as a method of attacking Murdoch and the Sun, and when it comes to complaining about bad taste the BBC are hardly without sin and should not be so shameless as to start any stone throwing.

The left’s default argument is that “everything is offensive”.
When they want to criticise a religion (usually Christianity) it’s because “it causes offense”.
When they want to defend a religion against criticism (usually Islam) they’ll tell you “you are causing offense”.
When they want to criticism English history it’s because “it is offensive”.
When they want to defend criticism of someones history or culture, they’ll tell you “you are being offensive”.
When they want to criticise a race (almost always the English), they’ll tell you “it is offensive”.
When they want to defend criticism of a race (almost anyone who isn’t English), they’ll tell you “you are being offensive”.
Naturally when they see an opportunity to attack their evil arch-nemesis Rupert Murdoch the “offense argument” immediately comes into play but as it’s an involuntary knee jerk reaction they often forget to do a simple hypocrisy check. On the other hand they probably wouldn’t recognise hypocrisy if it slapped them in the face (they would just be offended if it did).

Al Lefties are hypocrite! I don’t see Chris “Underpants” Bryant, Mehdi Hassan and the other gobby, Leftie blowhards criticising the Huffington Post which published FORTY similar photographs of the unfortunate murder victim in their version of the story.
As Mehdi Hassan works for the Huffington Post he should resign forthwith if he’s so disgusted at the ONE photograph published by the Sun.

Ritalah Shah on last nights P.M gave the game away as ever with the BBC.
The Sun hack on to discuss this models appearance on reality TV was on trial for showing her photo on his paper en passant.
He was made of sterner stuff than this and called it a fatuous Twitter storm of the lefty luvin` Guardian types-might Ritalah know anybody fitting this description I wondered?
His comments soon came to an end when he contrasted the media pouffe, souffle of this story with that of David Nicholson still being in post after mid-Staffs.
NO!!!…abort, does not compute…release the hounds…anything.
If I were anyone who hated the BBC…I`d always bring a pet mouse in with me to studios where the fragrant flops of luvviedom are placed for wind tunnels where a brain ought to be!
Oh…9am news and 8am news…Hugh Grant has got a second kid…so “cool”…maybe we all get a namecheck for weddings , births and shopping lists as long as we blow a prostitute and are prepared to work with the BBC to trash NewsCorps.
Thank You BBC…whatever DID happen to that mouse that bothered Shelagh Fogerty…let`s all hope that Savile was not an issue that day, nor that the poor creature didn`t end up in Jenni Murrays Subway.
Any chance of an enquiry?…Where`s Chrissie Hynde when you actually NEED her to save the poor animals?

Any further update on Danny Boyles NHS then after Gary Walker or mid-Staffs deathcamps?
And-on that Olympic theme-maybe poor Oscar Blade boy tried that bit too hard in the Paralympix…the media “celebration” of his triumphs for the “otherwise-abled” on behalf of that wondrous nation of rainbow loveliness down there…was it all too much?
Should we bin the Paralypics now…if it saves just one blonde model, then should we not employ that “precautionary principle”…oh and “make no apologies whatsoever” for doing so!
Oh-one final thought…any plans to go for compulsory gun controls in South Africa…seems to be a good idea for the USA…or are the liberal luvvies concerned more about the deaths of white children and not those poor black ones that Mrs Mandela used to mother on behalf of us all?
See-got `em all ends up!
Dezzie…Scott…Colditz?…showtime!

Ah… but… different enough.
The professional offence industry was already digging itself a hypocritical trench big enough to swallow the Katyn Forest when Prescott, Lump of, weighed in, and sealed their fate.
Interesting to see some vestigial outposts are still trying to keep the fire going after that rubber necklace of sex-equality squatted over it.

Considering you can still follow her twitter feed (https://twitter.com/reevasteenkamp) with its bikini pics I’m surprised the morally outraged aren’t on Twitter’s case. It seems to be newspapers being outraged with each others content is one of the few ways you notice they are still printed these days!
It seems that, like the BBC, there are those who can go a long way to find what is not there to ‘react angrily to’ (down Mason, down), and think nothing of ignoring what is.

There’s been an angry reaction from the usual opportunistic two-faced suspects to the front page of the Sun after they put a picture of the murder victim in the Oscar Pistorius case on their front page (in case you missed that: the front page! 3 times the charm), wearing just a bikini. Reeva was a professional model so is there a problem ? Or was it a bad judgement call by The Sun? SHOW LESS
Frankly, given the picture chosen at the top, I was hoping clicking that last option could have gone further.

Undeniably believe that that you said. Your favorite justification appeared to be on the internet the simplest factor to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed at the same time as people consider worries that they just don’t recognize about. You managed to hit the nail upon the highest and also outlined out the whole thing with no need side-effects , people could take a signal. Will likely be again to get more. Thank you
