I think the point being made outweighs the exaggeration this time, Julia.
I'll give her a pass for this alone: "...during the Blair years when Republican murderers were reborn overnight as 'statesmen'..."
What I would take issue with is the beginning of the above sentence,
"Forgotten for decades..."
It's not the sort of thing people forget unless you are a "progressive" politician with a convenient memory lapse. Any more than people will "forget" the London Underground bombings, the Warrington bombings or the Birmingham bombings (to name but a few). For that she deserves a kick up her arrogant, insulting, dead tree media arse because the memories of journalists are every bit as convenient as that of politicians.
Well apparently you get reported to teacher if you criticise a paper for misreporting on sensitive subjects. Criticising a paper for misreporting on uncontroversial subjects, I guess, is OK.
Issuing empty threats to silence dissenting voices is what happens when you are drip-fed a diet of authoritarian CiF gruel.
Go back to your cocooned comfort zone and quit annoying the adults who are unafraid to call a spade a spade in the face of obdurate, free speech murdering, politically correct BS.

Wow, how low can a person sink.
No wonder you have comment moderation.
I have reported your site to google.
I fail to see anything offensive that is worth being "reported to google" for, some people just have a problem with the truth.

Oh, agreed. I'm such a grammar pedant though ;)

Was there something about this post you didn't like, anon?
Well, tough.
