from my usual source DS!

I find this quite sickening tbh!

How not to sell a magazine

OP posts:
hunkermunker · 23/01/2007 14:46

Oh, yuck.

Enid · 23/01/2007 14:47

oh vile

and out of date too

no one cares anymore do they?

Caligula · 23/01/2007 14:57

These people are terrible parasites.

EmmyLou · 23/01/2007 14:58

Just awful. Pot calling kettle black IMHO.

EmmyLou · 23/01/2007 14:58

Parasites - the magazines and the people they pay to appear in them.

speedymama · 23/01/2007 15:09

Disgusting. I feel sorry for Ms Goody. She made a mistake, acknowledges she made the mistake so time to move on.

hercules1 · 23/01/2007 15:12

Still I bet judging by a lot of the hatred that is around for her there will be plenty of people buying it. What a sad world we live in.

madmarchhare · 23/01/2007 15:13

This whole thing is making my blood boil.

Fireflyfairy2 · 23/01/2007 15:15

NOW is the flippin' mag that she was in the most!!! Hypocrites!

expatinscotland · 23/01/2007 15:15

Who still reads 'Now'?

Ugggh.

I stopped the first time they started putting Jade on their covers years ago.

Hate is a terrible word

hercules1 · 23/01/2007 15:35

Agree about being no worse than on this site.

2shoesisinthemadteam · 23/01/2007 15:43

hercules1 and batters once again I so agree with you.
Pot calling kettle springs to mind

hunkermunker · 23/01/2007 15:59

I don't like it on here either.

Doesn't make it acceptable on the front cover of a magazine - nobody sets a good example these days, do they?

ruty · 23/01/2007 16:05

can we make a distinction between people apparently bullying and insulting Jade Goody/posters who disagree with them, and those who were arguing fairly and calmly that she was being racist and it was unacceptable?

hunkermunker · 23/01/2007 16:08

I think she was being racist, don't get me wrong. I'm not defending her at all. But I'm not out for her blood either.

hercules1 · 23/01/2007 16:10

I dont really care whether she was racist or not. There are plenty of people who are far worse than her and dont get a public hanging in this way. I'm not defending her but I find mass hatred towards one person (unless hitler type) pretty awful.

ledodgy · 23/01/2007 16:11

I agree with Hunker.

goingfor3 · 23/01/2007 16:11

They have a problem with her being a bully but they are doing the same to her and feuling anger. She did make a mistake but people just need to get over it!

Sheraz · 23/01/2007 16:12

Give the girl a break - she made a stupid mistake. We have all said/ done things we regret - although not in the public eye. I think she should disappear and let the whole thing blow over. These sort of headlines are vile, and bullying. Surely ther are other things happening in the world!!!

Caligula · 23/01/2007 16:13

I don't think you need to be out for her blood to find her remarks unacceptable.

It was always going to be inevitable that low-rent magazines like Now were going to scapegoat Jade. Lots of people will buy the magazine in order to revel in schadenfreude.

madmarchhare · 23/01/2007 16:14

I agree hercules. Its almost as if its acceptable to hound her because of who and what she is.

madmarchhare · 23/01/2007 16:14

Oh yes, its a good seller though

expatinscotland · 23/01/2007 16:15

Does Closer still feature Coleen WayneRooneysDebitCard?
