X Factor’s Miss Frank In Shock At Lucie Jones And Joe McElderry Row

miss-frankITN has the pleasure of delivering the greatest non-X Factory story of all time. No news is the new news. First, the headline:

Miss Frank explain tambourine bust-up

You can read about the Tambourine of Destiny here. And you can read ITN’s news here:

X Factor’s latest evictees Miss Frank say an alleged row between contestants about a tambourine has been blown out of proportion.

The row is now an “alleged row”. It might not even be a row:

It is claimed Lucie Jones was hit in the face with the instrument by Joe McElderry during rehearsals for their group song. But Miss Frank couldn’t believe the incident had made the newspapers.

But you can believe it made the ITN news, which like all broadcasters sees itself as a cut above the tabloids:

Graziella said: “How is that news? It was an accident. We didn’t even see it happen.”

And there we have the perfect non news news story. Ex-X Factor singer tells a leading news organ that something she never saw is not newsworthy.

Read all about it.
