This morning the Mail on Sunday has a prominent political story about Jeremy Hunt’s business links to Newscorp in general and the Murdoch company Milkround.
The Slog had the story exclusively here last Thursday – helped once again by the tireless research of a Slogger. As always with the Daily Fail, there is no credit for the provenance of the story.
This isn’t the first time the Wail has done this to me, and it won’t be the last. But never mind associated people, at least you’re closing the gap.
I threaded at the Mail story first thing this morning to point out the paper’s ‘error’. I doubt if they’ll publish it. Perhaps some others could do the same…and reveal so-called journalistic etiquette for the sermonising drivel it is.
Tomorrow in the Dacre Mail: Could there be something to this phone-hacking business after all? Quentin Letts has the inside track on the story.
