Enemies of Reason Poundshop potshots at the media moral maze.

You’re joking, right?

I don't tend to visit the Express website as much as I used to. For one thing, it's not got much news on it, or much of anything really - understandable really when you bear in mind the 80 jobs imminently disappearing down the toilet in the very near future.

For another, it's home to some of the most bizarre characters on the internet. I mean, real loons. Not just a bit eccentric or strange or anything, but blimey, really twisted characters. More often than not they're to be found in the Have Your Say section chuntering away about evil Muslims, foreigners, immigrants and NuLab, with lashings of hatred for Jock McBottler added in for good measure, as well as overspilling anger towards anything remotely on the left of the political spectrum... which is fair enough, I guess, if that's the way they feel about things. Keeps them away from here, happily enough (though I had a few visitors from Stormfront coming here last week - and I imagine there's a chance of more than a little crossover between there and the Express's HYS section).

Anyway, who do you think has been advertising on the Express website today? Have a guess. Go on, guess. You won't get it, but try anyway. OK, give up?

Yes, it's Unison. What in the wide world of sports is going on there?

Oddly enough, the Express very recently offered a story from Unison's Dave Prentis that wasn't totally hateful. Reader comments were disabled.

Hmm.
