I *hate* the News of the World

As far as I can tell from reading it they have one source for this "story" .

And they have yet again dragged in "barrister's daughter Sarah Marbeck, 29" - presumably that would be the hooker in Singapore who apparently made up her story after reading Rebecca Loos's.

FFS, why can't they just leave them alone? If there is any truth in the story (which I doubt), splashing it about like this won't help and the last line "They used to be so much in love ? everyone hopes they can patch up their marriage" is so hypocritical it makes me want to throw up!

This morning my Dad starting going on about Posh & Becks, he was being really critical and very unfair, imo.
Later that day I picked up his crappy paper (News of the World) and realised that all the rubbish he said before was straight out of this bog roll of a paper.
I think this just goes to show that stupid people (yes my Dad is stupid!) will believe everything they read and then start spreading it as if they heard it first hand, for goodness sake, does anyone actually know Posh & Becks?!

My dad once told me the only thing you should ever believe in a paper is the date....Now i know why...

I haven't seen it for about four years. Don't know how I manage to avoid it.

Must admit, hate NOTW too, but Max Clifford gave an interview when the whole Rebecca Loos came out, and he said that even though you should never believe anything you read, a paper will not publish a story like that on such major celebritities unless it were true, as they could be taken to the cleaners. He said that the NOTW had been working on the story for six months before it actually went to print.
