Argh, 183 utterly pointless mails to trawl through, hello Platt, hello Ian, did you have a nice easter holiday?
The "newspapers" concerned are no more than comics, I found a copy on a train on the way into london yesterday and the "full story" was sandwiched between topless photographs and mindless celebrity gossip. These types of publication will always print whatever they like with or without an "exclusive interview" from some poor meidia pawn. Can't say I'm outraged, more indifferent. Average Joe in the street doesn't want in depth analysis of the diplomatic chess that went on behind the scenes, he wants to feel self righteous and "outraged" at the evil foreigner. This is just the mindless pap is that sells newspapers. Should the army censor it? Dont think they can, pretty sure they have no control over the media, individual soldiers really aren't that well paid and if they want to earn a few quid prostiting themselves to rupert murdoch, cant say that I really see the harm. Theres as much value in applying the MOQ to this non-issue as there is in reading the articles - none. Just to humor you though, I would say that the entire incident is within the social level. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Platt Holden > Sent: 10 April 2007 15:40 > To: [email protected] > Subject: [MD] Making money from surrender? > > > Hi All, > > I wonder what our MOQ friends in England think about the > morality of the > sailors captured by an Iranian military attack selling their > stories to > the media, having been given permission to do so by the Ministry of > Defense?
