Stephen Glover: There’s one part of the news-stand that’s still doing serious business

The printed word is dead, we are often told. It is certainly having a hard time in national and regional newspapers, nearly all of which have been losing sales at a dramatic rate. But the printed word in magazines is in a much happier state.
Stephen Glover: This acquired taste for scooping red-tops could be a risky strategy
Monday, 8 February 2010

Stephen Glover: Newspapers will not be put in the dock over their Iraq war coverage

Monday, 18 January 2010
Has there been a secret deal between David Cameron and Rupert Murdoch?
Stephen Glover: Why Cameron will enjoy a world where the sun always shines
Monday, 11 January 2010
Say what you like about The Sun, once it has declared it will back you it does not renege on the agreement.
