'Guardian reader's remedy on press regulation, p6- don't tuck away apologies on p58. Guardian apology to the Sun- p36.'It's worse than that though, look at The Guardian website front page, can you see a mention of the apology at all?
To give the BBC its due, they do report The Guardian's apology. However whilst the article is headlined 'Guardian apologises to the Sun over Gordon Brown story' and the article starts: 'The Guardian has apologised to the Sun for reporting that it accessed Gordon Brown's son's medical records.' The BBC cannot help themselves as they caption a picture of Gordon Brown looking serious and dour 'Gordon Brown Gordon Brown questioned how the Sun came about information on his son's medical condition'
Did Gordon Brown 'question' how the Sun came upon this information? I would have said that he 'accused' The Sun of foul play. Also was there another news organisation, one with more reach than News International, which reported Gordon Brown's accusations as fact? One with the initials BBC perhaps?
More on Gordon Brown's hideous hypocrisy later today...

But the BBC don't care what they say do they?.
Fact: in the run up to the '97 election, Labour aparatchiks Brown, Blair and Mandleson conspired to have gorgeouos pouting (and Labour supporting) Mandy Brown, 26, as the Sun's 'page 3 girl' no less than 8 times, no doubt influencing the outcome of said election. Coincidence?
