"JOURNALISTS HAVE NO MORALITY" SEGÚN CHERIE BLAIR

Journalists have no morality, Cherie Blair tells students---------------------------------------------------------Cherie Blair has launched an extraordinary attack on the media claimingthere is 'no professional morality in journalism'. The UK Prime Minister's wife took her revenge on a profession that has bedevilled her for years when invited to address students at Roehampton University on Wednesday. She told a stunned audience that it was 'not a noble calling' andjournalists 'have no ethics'. Then, Mrs Blair - who was at theuniversity in south-west London to open its Human Rights Centre - turnedher attention to the Daily Mail and the Press Complaints Commission.Since the latter has repeatedly failed to uphold the Blairs' complaintsabout the former, Mrs Blair's words - 'the pathetic PCC dominated by theDaily Mail - are not, perhaps, surprising. Her spokeswoman yesterday sought to play down the incident. 'Mrs Blairwas merely playing devil's advocate to stimulate discussion amongst thestudents.' But the students say the PM's wife delivered a 'rant' andthey weren't given an opportunity to defend their putative trade.Source: http://news.independent.co.uk/uk/politics/article2016131.ece - The Independent
