In a nipple-free article notable for the absence of the usual crap puns and commentary, the headline and a small amount of comment sardonically said that he did lot’s of crimes and then put them on the web for everyone to see. And then called him dumb for doing so and getting caught. They’ve even got a “Have Your Say” bit to allow people to hop in and poke a pillory’s worth of fun at the twit.
This is the same paper that quite happily publishes lies and innuendo and harasses people to distraction and stupidly puts all the results of this in it’s pages for profit.

It knows that censure from the Press Complaints Commission etc is like a tut in a crossword…
In effect, it’s customers are subsidising it’s court costs because of the titillation it provides them at other people’s expense.
