Pot / Kettle Scenario - 28th March

http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2001320029-2007140415,00.html

Interesting piece in the TV section of The Sun today.

"CHANNEL 4 was caught up in another scandal last night after admitting its top 100 comedians poll was RIGGED. Producers counted the public votes before the poll had finished — because they suspected dirty tricks by fans. As a result, potentially thousands of votes were not counted towards the March 18 show, won by Billy Connolly."

Rigged polls? Shock! Counting votes before polls had finished? Scandal! What could be worse - except maybe awarding the prizes before the polls opened. The author of this piece could have used an example a bit closer to home, methinks...

Supermodel thrill for Rod son

Rod, 62, and Rachel split in 2006.

Penny must be thrilled about that.

What can I say? You've said it all. It's insulting how she doesn't even try to cover her tracks.

Good spot secretdubai, unfortunately the story isn't under the Bizarre banner on the website, so I can't use it. :O( Top marks still!
