Okay, BT has done it again.
Mary udsat for plat tæppejoke - Royale - BT.dk
Distorted facts and sensationalized trivialities in order to get hits.
The option of the readers writing comments have been omitted this time
Under the headline: Mary udsat for plat tæppejoke = Mary exposed to vulgar carpet-joke, the article tells about one of those who gave a speech at the birthday of Amber Petty, Matt Gilbertson. He referred jokingly to royalty among them, pointing to AP's father who owned a carpet business called Carpet Kingdom.
- Whether it was funny is debatable but I fail to see how that in any way could be considered vulgar.
But the article goes on to explain to the now hopefully indignant readers that Mary was forced to wear and I quote: "a model-competion-ribbon" with the text: Lifemaid.
- Presumably the author has no sense of humour at all and/or he believe the readers are completely brain-dead. How he managed to complete the school for journalism is beyond me, but perhaps he didn't and he is just an intern.
Anyway, stories in the tabloid BT must now be considered less than credible!
Stories written by these authors in particular must be read with extreme caution:
James Kristoffer Miles
Sisse Sejr-Nørgaard
BT's now retired royal reporter,
Bodil Cath, was extremely reliable. She knew what she was talking about and she had developed a rapport with the DRF over the years, resulting in many exclusives.
The writers mentioned above can in no way be compared to her.
