Some may have been amused by the Echo Newspaper being taken apart by Media Watch last week. The timing therefore could not be worse for their big anniversary dinner last night, when these mugs were handed out with independent spelt incorrectly. Oh the humanity. Oh the independance! If Jonathon Holmes sees this, I hope he doesn’t start singing Echo Beach. For some reason he was singing in last week’s show.

Ideal for drinking sour grapes
Whole thing reeks of typo. Is that a ‘J’? Should be Year’s.
The price of these mugs will be surging on the black market.
Might be wrong, but isn’t there a case for saying 1985-2010 is actually 26 years?
I didn’t dare count it.
Without local government press releases to fall back upon, the Echo staff obviously struggled with the text for the mug.
Sent this page off to Media Watch.
If that’s what you think of The Post, I dread to think of the invective you have for Community.
How can they afford a piss up after DFOC’s ruined them ?
off piste…
article from The Grauniad in which famous musicians are asked to recount their favourite moment on stage. For some reason they asked Luke “Lord Gaga” Steele.
He uses it as an opportunity to bemoan the lack of ooshta in his home town
New York is much better, it appears. who knew? well, Shallow Spice could have told him

What a cunt.
Does Luke Steel have a mirror?
A magic mirror
…with an attached spoon judging by his Heather Graham rollerskates straight from Boogie Nights coke flashback.
I immediately thought of Cookster
what happened to him?
too busy wankling.
I think he’s sleeping out for charity.

speaking of typos, Shallow Spice and all things second rate
Daile has a rather splendid typo on her column today

You’ve better eyes than me, as I can’t see the typo. Fascinating read though. I’m actually thinking about changing my moniker to Daile Fan #1.
look again, and then you owe me an aplology
Is it the ay post trofe?

Nicely spotted.
Ego is not a dirty word.
I thought, perhaps hopefully, they’d ditched her lo-fat Sex and the City style words.
I guess not.
i think, you are the “mugs’
trample on dreams why dont you,
Everyone makes mistakes, you shouldn’;t throw stones in grrengrocers shops.
Not you greg – “CHEERRS’.
the stones from the peaches must be gently `placed’ in the bins provided

whoa that place has gone waaaaaayyyyy down hill
BTW good on you! Keep breaking that shithole down
everyone saying back off or poor them. Screw that.
They want to publish? They want to sell papers?
Get it right or GTFO
The industry has voted. The Echo are the biggest losers.
Some of the kids at my school are in like year 5 and 6 and they spell diary and Dairy OMG whats wrong with the teachers theese days and they don’t even correct it.
I agree. A lot of mistakes seem to be going uncorrected.
