False Dawn

Further claims have hit the previously unblemished world of mainstream media and show business today as yet another formerly trusted outlet of information has forever had its record blemished. Following the now infamous scandals on GMTV with their phone in feux pas and the BBC's horrific head o' state howler it has now come to light that there has been a sequence of sizable slip ups in one of our most beloved ink and paper based pre-tommorow fishwrap tomes.

The Daily Bandwagon, by their own admission "one of Britain's biggest selling newspapers" (even though if you really think about it that slogan makes little sense) yesterday printed a story which later turned out to be entirely true, something which many readers are outraged about.

"I don't buy red tops for the truth" one reader, Mr Phil Space said in response to our shameless 'Send us your thoughts so we don't have to create any original editorial opinion' appeal launched on the site yesterday "I read it for unsubstantiated rumours written by lazy hacks. If I wanted truth I'd read a proper paper, but now I'll have to watch TV documentaries for my deliberately misleading needs"

The editor of The Daily Bandwagon, Horatio McNabb last night resigned from his post and apologised to all he had offended by his gross misconduct

"I am sorry that I have gone against everything that The Daily Bandwagon stands for. In my defense when I put the story in, it was close to deadline time and I couldn't think of another lie fast enough, and I didn't think anyone would believe that the Jasper Carrott sitcom "All About Me" wasn't coming back for another series - after all it is top quality"

The Bandwagon Trust are meeting today to see how they can regain the trust of the public, and ordered a 48 page pull out about Brand Beckham's effect on the Iraq economy to immediately go to print.
