Headaches

I noticed an item in today’s Herald titled “What’s really causing your headache – and how to treat it”. I turned to it expectantly, imagining that the Herald was at last about to acknowledge the assault it repeatedly makes on the sensibilities of its readers and celebrating that I was about to receive an apology for the headaches I suffer from the Herald’s insistence on acting as a propaganda sheet rather than a proper newspaper.

Sadly, there was not a word of “mea culpa”, and the rest of the “newspaper” persisted in its scattergun attacks on the government and in offering a distorted view of how the political debate should be conducted. Readers of the Herald arise! You have nothing to lose but your headaches!
