GoogleNews is occasionally like crack

The Murdoch press has an interview with Billie P, which is nice, and the Courier Fail accompanies it with a 45-part picspam gallery of Doctor Who photos.  My favourite is the one where they describe Jack as an Alternate Time Lord.  (There's also a Special Examination of Semi-Nudity In The Pop Industry, if that's your thing.  I wouldn't get too excited, though, the definition of "semi-nude" has been expanded to include the category previously known as "fully dressed".)

There's also a column by a features editor, arguing that what we really need is an old man playing the Doctor again, as opposed to someone female gay fruity poncy young.  (Seriously, the link to this column from the picture gallery was "Fans say no to poncy Doctor Who".)

Meanwhile, The Sun reports that Billie's next role will be playing a single mum on a council estate, who discovers that her estranged father is a millionaire.  I'm pretty sure they just got that from the 'recent stories' page on the Teaspoon.

This is the best entry I've seen on my flist all day. For serious. Brilliant.

You enjoy tacky Australian journalism?

Mmmm...more your take on tacky Australian journalism. I kinda want you to have you snark the newspaper for me every morning now.

It's the only way I can cope with the Murdoch press.
