I'm like, oh my god! A top supermodel has been caught with her rock star boyfriend taking cocaine!:eyes:

What is wrong with this place? If a top supermodel had been offered cocaine and said no thanks I might consider that a newsworthy event, but pointless drivel like this gets newspaper editors in my country so excited! It's pathetic.

I think our press in the US often mirrors the yellowest parts of yours in the UK.

4. That's not good

Our TV news is pretty good, but I think we must have the worst, most venal newspapers in the world. :(
