Comments on: Giles Coren In The Times’ Sub Editors’ Inbox http://www.anorak.co.uk/twitterings/186334.html Tabloid news for broadsheet readers Wed, 03 Dec 2008 07:09:21 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Ted Maul http://www.anorak.co.uk/twitterings/186334.html#comment-351699 Ted Maul Sun, 27 Jul 2008 03:44:52 +0000 http://www.anorak.co.uk/?p=186334#comment-351699 I love the faux intellectual 'I-really-am-not-a-passenger,-honest' touches, like the references to scansion (learnt at Dad's universtity), Yiddish (thanks Dad) and German language (thanks Dad). Don't get so angry, Giles. Just deal with the fact that there are more talented, more interesting, more deserving journalists and sub-editors out there than you. They just didn't get the job, because of people like you and your equally unintersting sister. Did it ever occur to you that these sub-editor unter-menschen read your stuff and genuinely thought it was shit. Always. Honestly? After all, they had to prove themselves to do so. Ciao. Don't let go of the coat tails.
