A Likely Story...

Personally, I think she needs to speak to her husband about his secret pr0n habit.

The Sugar Plum Fairy...

I can see that title working for either movie...

Just a suggestion, but you might want to keep all these "made up" articles from the Sun in one thread. All they are good for is a laugh...or a smirk...or not.

This one was kinda lame and was yet another obviously made up story as, again, it gives no names and, though it mentions a "county" where this occurs, it doesn't say what state or anything.

Kinda surprising that their "online" rag is so brief in the articles as I've bought a few over the years for a good laugh here and there...especially when the cover claims "Face of Jesus Seen in Clouds" or "Face of Satan Seen in Smoke Over Industrial Fire". *rolls eyes*

This one's corroborated here:

Hmmm...admitedly I didn't even bother with this one, but from Dace's response in the other thread, I guess their "The Sun" and ours *isn't* so similar after all and I was misled to believe so.

Pretty much so, Lady Sedai. The Sun U.K. is a widely read paper in Britain and pretty espectable in re their sources.
The American tabloid called the Sun is actually published by space aliens. At least that's what the Enquirer said. [img]smile.gif[/img]

LOL, what Absynthe said!

I'm still wondering what that poor lady actually thought her husband was doing with that dvd.

Crazy news Dace, I can only imagine what it was like for those sitting down to watch the tape! Doh!

Lady Sedai - sheesh just let up some with the constant correcting people thing, you end up more off the mark than on, and it insults people as well.

Weeelllll....the British Sun is certainly no National Enquirer, but to call it 'pretty respectable' is rather generous. To many Brits (myself included) its mostly associated with celebrity gossip, salacious sex stories, right-wing nationalism, bigotry and of course, topless women on page 3. In British journalism terms, it's pretty much the gutter-press.

Of course, it is also (i believe) the most widely read British tabloid - so I guess my opiniosn are not shared by everyone!
