the stain

Another freelancer has reported that a NOTW journo has told him that internet is currently blocked at NOTW offices; Twitter has been blocked since the announcement.

The ex-chief of the NUJ has just confirmed that: "Sun journalists (have) walked out in protest at NoTW shutdown as Murdoch tries to buy out staff rights to consultation"

At the time of it's announced closure, NOTW had 4 remaining advertisers: BSkyB, Tesco, Mars and British Gas. I wonder what their decision making was based on? Even the News of the World decided to pull out of the News of the World before they did.

Tell me about it. If I'm honest, I'm a bit disappointed that we've only managed to sign 1 player in the 6 days since the transfer window opened.

News of The World reporter?

Bit disappointed by this one. I would of preferred a 'marquee' signing.

SWF infraction: Pointless and sarcastic post. 1 infraction point.

Do we really need another thread on this? Stick to the 5 page one.

"There’s good news and bad news. The bad news is Neil will be taking over both branches and some of you will lose your jobs… On a more positive note the good news is I’ve been promoted - so every cloud… you’re still thinking about the bad news aren’t you?"

From a freelancer on Twitter: "A #NOTW journalist tells me the feeling in the newsroom towards Rebekah Brooks is 'utter fury she has sacrificed paper to save her job'"

News of the World goes; Rebekah Brooks stays. How does that work?

I work at Games Workshop.

By way of protest, I have been skipping track 5 on The Jam's Snap! album all this week.

In other words, The Sun will now be a 7-day paper. No win.

You sound like a NOTW apologist. Maybe in your area, they are all supporting the paper, but down here we are clearly boycotting it in all of our newsagents. If only you, and the rest of the country, would share our morals and we could bring this paper down once and for all.

The people have spoken. I went into 4 newsagents today and not one of them were stocking the News of the World. Power to the people and down with the NOTW!

Oh, the irony.

But this is the lounge, not the muppet show.

Agreed. Maybe LD just hangs around with c*nts.

Does your wife go to look for tin foil to wrap her sandwiches and wonder where it has all disappeared to?

He's not good enough for us. We are hopefully signing Karl Henry, a better option IMHO.
