Who reads this bum-fodder?

Seriously - who?

Of all the things one could choose to read in the world ...

I'm baffled.

    I wouldn't use this bum-fodder on my bum, let alone read it.
    Such a waste of beautiful trees. Sigh.

      On everything you say, Jingles, we are in complete agreement.

    Such utter rubbish.
    There's no way Will and Kate's baby would be born in America.
    Bum fodder indeed!

      I did wonder how far the delusions on these stories go - does anyone actually believe in the journalism, or is it just silly entertainment that no one takes seriously?

      But then people genuinely believe belief in WWF, don't they?

      (the wrestling, not the wildlife charity)
