Ever-descending journalisting

Post by HappyHour@TheBreweryOfLife »

Note the headline. Then read the story.

Not only is the headline entirely inaccurate but how the Donald is this a national news-worthy story in the first place?

Yesterday, I decided I was going to the local café for lunch as I hadn't been there for a while. However, today I changed my mind and bought something from Sainsbury's instead. Who can I call to get this published?

Yep, the Metro's standards have really dropped recently. I think it started when they let Woodward and Bernstein go. Been downhill ever since.

"Man travels abroad" doesn't have the same ring to it.

That's not journalism, at all.
