"Polyworking" - love new terms for "we don't pay our staff enough or give enough working hours", framing it as a hip new trend.

If they stopped doing things illegally their legal costs would probably be lower, but they just can't stop themselves from bribing dodgy coppers and intercepting mail and taking photos up schoolgirl's skirts.

Complaining about legal costs of the Sun is like complaining about the cost of bullets in the gun you use to kill people. Cost of doing business boys.

They paid twice as much just for the phone hacking scandals that were still ongoing upto 2020.
News Corp claimed The Sun was worth zero pounds a few years ago, and stopped giving circulation numbers as they are dying.
Its been dead for a few years now and hasn't just been culled to save costs.

"When I was a girl, around 12 or 13, I had a fantasy that I'd grow up to marry Captain Scarlet, but he'd be busy fighting the Mysterons so I'd cuckold him with the sexiest people I could think of - Nigel Mansell, Pat Sharp and Mr. Blobby."

Media exists as propaganda for a particular class and especially news media lol, it doesn't directly make money nor is it supposed to. It may get handed off between particular owners when they individually can't or won't provide that collective protection and can die when it's heavily associated with a section of a class which no longer has enough power or money to sustain itself but that's very different.

Hey where did all the trade union and Labour papers go?

Have to lol at anyone who expects anything ChatGPT outputs to mean a loving thing.
I asked bullshit.exe a question and was shocked to find it was fake.

I've been trying to get ChatGPT to come up with new jokes but it seems literally impossible to get it to not repeat ones it comes up with already, it could probably come up with 10k differently worded articles around the same subject but I doubt the current generation of AI would be a suitable replacement
