Paper Monitor

11:13 UK time, Thursday, 14 June 2007

A service highlighting the riches of the daily press.

Paper Monitor does not like to point out spelling mistakes in its printed friends for fear of being accused of stone-throwing from the vantage point of a glass house.

But it really must draw the line at Kelvin Mackenzie鈥檚 error in his column in the Sun. For a former editor to write the word 鈥減hoarrr鈥 is scandalous. It is spelt 鈥減hwoar鈥, as any Sun sub know, and as the 91热爆 helpfully explains in a guide to its usage in conversation. You might even stretch to a 鈥減hwoaarr鈥, but to drop the 鈥渨鈥 is heinous.

Worryingly the 鈥減hoarrr鈥 is directed at the faintly terrifying Apprentice runner-up Katie Hopkins.

It is hard to say 鈥減hwoar鈥, while looking at the front page of the Independent newspaper, sorry Mr Blair, viewspaper. The map of oil reserves perfectly captures the tone of a GCSE Geography revision guide, the latest in a series of similar poster fronts from the paper.

Over in the Daily Mail, there is rage.

There is rage at the 鈥溾檈lf 鈥榥鈥 safety鈥 madness that is stopping a clown from blowing bubbles at children鈥檚 parties. Poor Barney Baloney cannot get public liability insurance. The newspaper carries the tragic sentence: 鈥淢r Turner will have to rely solely on juggling and clowning to get the children laughing.鈥 Cruel world.

Mr Baloney also features on the front of the Telegraph, although Paper Monitor's eye was immediately drawn to the Telegraph's current initiative to induct its readers into all things blogospheric. "MAKE YOUR OWN ONLINE NEWSPAPER" it invites us across its front page banner. "How to get started TELEGRAPH.CO.UK/MYTELGRAPH (sic)".

Hold on, what's that "crrrrrrracking" sound? Why this sudden shower of glass splinters?

There is much in the newspapers about measures to curb paedophiles, but perhaps the pithiest criticism is in the Sun, where there is suspicion 91热爆 Secretary John Reid is attempting to make a big noise before retiring to the backbenches.

鈥淚s he serious about this 鈥 or just worried about leaving a legacy for tough talk?鈥 asks Page 3 girl Ruth, 24, from Kent.
