The Independent: Spot The Difference

The Independent (and Independent On Sunday) continues its record-breakingly hopeless gay coverage - illustrated, but of course, with the same photo of a faceless gay couple.
Did Stockphoto offer them a two-for-one deal?
The "satirical" article about gay bishops is painfully unfunny.
I never cease to be astounded that a supposedly liberal and progressive national newspaper can get away with this half-arsed patronising crud.

PS By the powers of magick, the first illustration has now been changed.

  1. With such debates those reporting often get their knowledge of the Church from what they learned in their C of E primary school, religion in the contemporary United States and the varying assumptions people make about every facet of English society.

    So mostly horseshit...

    Unfortunately we tend to forget any notion of human cost, when we argue over such issues. You may profoundly disagree with such views, but you cannot so easily dismiss the people affected.

    Sorry this was meant to be a rant against craptire. Must try again harder next time.
