Why does she 'have' to deny personal problems. She could for a moment, just a moment, give pause and imagine a world where most of us couldn't care less about her thoughts or personal life. And she would be right.
Yes.
But the claim was taken literally and hence the brouhaha. Again, you're talking about should. I'm talking about why there was a fuss.
I don't know and I don't care.
You asked why the other quote about wishing a nuclear bomb to descend on China didn't cause a splash. I have...
No because there is no case to answer to. Nothing they said was defamatory.
Right, but if you replace China for England and Chinese for English that's still not what he said is it?
This is my last time round because I am getting dizzy. He inferred that the Chinese are a subspecies (or...
If it doesn't matter and these things have no impact then I wonder why he is bothering to take the NME to court on the argument that these kinds of articles have a impact on his reputation in the public mind. I think it remains a talking point here because here is where people talk about...
I think we are speaking on two different planes here. You are speaking of why it shouldn't have made the impact. I am giving reasons as to why it did.
Should it have made an impact? Hmmm, I don't know. It's a great line.
I'm saying that that quote, stuck in the middle of an interview...
Ah, no it wasn't. It was highlighted in a supplementary article.

So in fact on that day, the interview appeared in the Guardian's magazine, Weekend, there was an article in the main body of the paper and there was...
Arousal? Are you sure? It's not like me. It's not even 8pm! Well before the watershed.
I'm sorry, I am referring to the world outside of these pages, namely the public at large and non-Morrissey-solo users. Frankly, most people here are high up to the eyeballs. Very few could give a view...
I'm not debating if Morrissey is a racist or not or if he likes to rely on hyperbole in his everyday expression. As I have said earlier in the thread, I don't believe him to be racist and yes, you're right he is fond of the dramatic.
I'm answering, well at least raising the possibility of an...
I think the difference in effect Worm is that 'China' is particularly vague. China's government? China's history? China's culture? China's people? It's easy to distance one's self from the charge if you don't partake in the behaviour and you feel no great affiliation with whatever the...
Not so much the topic Peter but I have trouble describing the search for Morrissey's intentions as 'painful' and wishing to have not woken up for the day's activities as a result of this conundrum.
Whilst this doesn't directly answer your question, it might give a little background to reference.
So I'll do a Kewpie and direct you to the following link sans the smarmy condescension.

Charlie Brooker thinks the present is a wrapped dog's head. He might be right.
I read the ad to say that the mother hopes that this year she'll get a gift she likes rather than the usual crap she receives and then has to plaster a smile on her face so as not to hurt anyone's feelings.
I think what juno is saying is that you can't be on the side of Morrissey while also befriending and defending his detractors and those whom juno believes illustrate the appropriate response of a 'f*** Morrissey-Solo.com' t-shirt.
You can't say Morrissey has a right to defend himself against...
