Not what you think

I finally got around to checking the renewed NOT The South China Morning Post and thoroughly recommend a gander. The real SCMP remains lamentable but this satiric website (which protests it is not a blog) looks like the goods to keep them honest. Unfortunately the so-far unispiring Spike hasn't hit the satire straps but it looks like NTSCMP is going to do the job. It shouldn't be too hard given the masses of material the SCMP lobs up to be smacked every day. Luckily there will be plenty to go around for everyone.

How ironic one of the world's worst newspapers will be shadowed by what was previously one of the world's better websites (and no doubt will regain its place). And irony is so 1990s.

I was given a free copy of Spike, what a load of dog do do and at 25HKD - too expensive!
