I wasn’t sure if I should post something about this or not, but after being annoyed by this “article” in one of the largest online newspapers in Sweden for some time I decided I should.

The headline is “Who’s the badger?”, with this picture next to it and a selection of popstars, questioning who had to dig so deep in his swimming trunks. It seems very common to catch celebraties in embarrasing situations and then showing part of the picture and people have to guess who it is.

So this turned out to be the singer of Duran Duran, Simon Le Bon, who had to adjust the junk in his swimming trunks. But… who the hell cares? Can people who think this is news or fun to know please comment on why that is? Some reporters sure have outstanding skills in finding stories where there are none.
