The sad decline of the paper of record

Thursday, 18 August 2016

The Times has been forced to put an apology on its front page today after saying Bed Blocking cost the NHS 6 billion quid.

The actual amount was 820 million.

I have noticed recently that the news is increasingly reflecting opinion - even in just implying things in the wording.

Frightening: but most of all - Editors and Proprietors simply do not care.

As long as it is a good story and exaggeration makes better stories.

As British Justice has reflected for decades.

And it is not just The Times. The Guardian has declined appallingly; and all the broadsheets are currently packed with wimmins stories. Not intelligent tales from a female perspective but rubbish about fashion, handbags and period pains.
