The end of the road for Derby

The News of the World’s standard of investigative journalism in exposing to the public, the shameful acts that celebrities and persons in high profile positions (see David Beckham affair with Rebecca Loos, or Sven Goran Erikson’s dodgy financial dealings with a fake sheik) would rather remain private, continued when it released pictures of Paul Jewell involved in sexual activities with a woman who was not his wife. Admittedly his wife has a right to know what devious situations her husband is getting himself into behind her back, but on the other hand it is dishonourable that a newspaper which endorses a McDonalization of the news has the second largest amount of sales in Britain. However Paul Jewell’s extra marital affairs might not be the least of his problems, for following a 2-2 draw with Fulham they were relegated from the English Premiership.
