The least newsworthy news ever?

I think I've seen a new low in filling space on a page.

A woman has spiders in her house in Galway. A zoologist has said they're pretty common.

You can thank that scumbag Max Clifford for that shite.

Edit to add my favourite non-story from transfer deadline day a couple of years back.

When the BBC announced that Kate Middleton would be having her kid in April when she'd come out as three months pregnant in October, even the presenter made a comment about how it was just basic maths.

There's a thread on the Limerick Leader over in the Limerick forum. Consistently reporting absolute rubbish.

In the headlines this week:
Loud Limerick crowd to accompany woman on Winning Streak appearance.

Used to be known as the paper of record.

How's about this for a scoop.....

Even by local newspaper standards, that's pathetic.

That's pretty lame alright.

The thing is, I don't mind the sports news or showbiz news, they're not really news news, we expect them to be inane and not amount to much. But the spider story and that missing flights story are carried as proper news. And there's nothing in them.

Couldn't find a pic of it, but I remember years back when Mickey Joe Hart was in the Eurovision song contest. He returned to a heroes welcome in Galway (I presume it's his home town?)
Anyway - the headline I seen proudly boasted "Galway girls go mad for Mickey":D

[Deleted User]

All the "celebrity" bullshít, and I do mean every single bit of it - and all the commercial sport bullshít, and I do mean every single bit of it. What amazing private businesses they are to get so much free publicity under the guise of something as prominent as the "news".

It would be refreshing to have a single radio station in Ireland without either. Yes, there's Lyric but then it has Marty Whelan's incessant Grade Z waffle destroying art, calm and peace like a bull in a china shop.

You presume wrong!! He's from Donegal.

99% of news fall into that category, all the celebrities rubbish, trump, everything that starts with the word "breaking" indicates you don't need to bother reading it.
