That’s the basic question the shattered compilers of this column asked after “sub-editor/s” at The Sydney Morning Herald once again fucked up big time on their shift last night (Wednesday).
Many of you BUGgers will know immediately what’s happened here – for the ten zillionth time if we may be permitted a splash of hyperbole – two stories that were carried over from the SMH‘s fake front cover on PAGE THREE have been recorded as coming from PAGE 1.
Yes, it’s this never-ending nightmare – for our MGH compilers at least – of these clown subeditors of not asking a very basic question as soon as they plop down their lazy, unprofessional arses for the night shift, namely: “We’ve got another Hardly Normal wraparound again. Are we still calling our fake cover page in the book page three?”
Two out of two for incompetency! That a 100 per cent FAIL!
So, here we go again!
And we’ll send down another batch of our magnets to stick on the drinks fridge in the paper’s “subbing” hub!
