The paper ran as its main lead this morning yet another report about the nation's health
Parents of fat children to be given a warning rather than what the Spectator believed should have been its main lead,a scoop interview with Turkey's Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan
According to the blog,this represents its tabloid credentials
when The Times chooses to lead with an insignificant development on child obesity in Britain rather than with its own scoop on globally-significant events in Turkey, then you know Rupert Murdoch's tabloid values have won, not just when it comes to the paper's size but, sadly, to its content as well.
It is an interesting point.As mentioned on this blog lkast week the papers have been obsessed with health stories over the last couple of weeks.An imminent outbreak of hostilities in Northern Iraq you would think would take precedent,at least in a quality paper
