Here, here.
I couldn't give a toss about our monarchy.
However, I don't think that's got anything to do with our tabloids being creative and exploitational.
That would be down to people like Max Clifford to whom the whole media is a playground to do with how he chooses.
He's been documented to have used his paper to get one over a fellow investigative presenter (Louis Theroux) by printing a pack of lies about his activities in a club.
It's public knowledge that you can't trust these papers and yet when The Sun (direct competitor to The Mirror) is the most popular paper in the UK selling millions a day then you know they must be doing something right.
