Manchester City: Sergio Aguero gets the Princess Diana treatment
The Daily Mail has bought a few paparazzi pictures of Manchester City player Sergio Aguero minding his own business. To give you an idea of the levels of news we’re dealing with, the pictures are caption:
Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero was pictured outside his local butchers on Tuesday afternoon
The 27-year-old Argentine was seen leaving his local butchers in Hale, Cheshire on Tuesday
“Was seen…” There is a whiff of revelation about that, as if he’s been in hiding, or has something to hide.
The third photo tells readers:
Aguero will be hoping to give Chelsea’s FA Cup hopes the chop when they meet in the fifth round on Sunday
Geddit?!
PS – this is the Mail that told its readers, eight days after the death of Princess Diana:
The proprietor of the Daily Mail, Mail on Sunday and Evening Standard announced last night that his papers will not in future purchase pictures taken by paparazzi Viscount Rothermere, chairman of the Daily Mail and General Trust plc said: ‘I am, and always have been, an admirer of Diana, Princess of Wales, and nagged my editors to protect her so far as they could against her powerful enemies. In view of Earl Spencer’s strong words and my own sense of outrage, I have instructed my editors no ‘paparazzi’ pictures are to be purchased without my knowledge and consent.’
“Hello, boss… Sorry to bother you in France. We’ve got pictures of a football buying fresh meat. No, not sex – actual meat from animals. Should we hold the backpage or follow him home..?”
