I'm not sure how many of you are aware of this story, but it's one that shows how low the media can (and do) go.

On the 8th March 2009, The Sunday Express printed a story about the survivours of the Dunblane school shooting.

Simply put, a journalist (Paula Murray) made friends with the surviours via Facebook & Bebo then published this article...

These 'kids' have life which im sure they are very grateful for. pretty much every 11-30 year old that has a computer in their house has a Facebook or Bebo account.
Its extremely low to say they are disrespecting the dead's families. How are they disrespecting them? By getting a tattoo? By supporting Rangers? By Swearing? Fair enough if they were having a dig at the deceased but not for the above.

(I read only the 1st column and not all the article, dont have time, at work you see!)

Too small for me to read.
