It's not really news when they make half of it up... but that's not stopped them so far!
So then, the News of the World. Not much can be said about this paper really... other than if you spot anyone reading it, ignore them, and if you know anyone that reads it, pretend you don't know them anymore. It's for your own good. If you ignore a problem for long enough, it goes away. Proven fact. It was in the Daily Mail and everything. Or ignoring problems leads to cancer. One of those two.
Essentially the sister paper to The Sun, and where everything too stupid for that goes to live, its fondness for sex scandals gained it the nicknames "News of the Screws" and "Screws of the World". We're not too sure which we prefer to be honest.
Unfortunately, worringly, and rather astoundingly, the News of the World is the second-largest selling English-language newspaper in the world. When they're not busy getting paediatricians beaten up, tapping phone lines or accusing celebrities of shagging everything that moves, they tend to... um... oh. Nevermind then.
Enjoy your weekend everybody. And don't buy the News of the World, for f*ck's sake.
