Fun Bit 003 - Another Gaffe from ST

News: The picture posted on the front page of The Straits Times website on Sunday 3rd Feb 2008. Look closely.


Fun: When they are not making shameless amendments to their own headlines (see Media Freedom) to mislead the unsuspecting public, The Straits Times certainly is a very educational newspaper. In this case, a tit bit too educational.

One day later on 4th Feb, The Straits Times announced an editorial reshuffle supposedly meant to "streamline, strengthen coverage". Funny coincidence?
