It may not be true, but is it libelous? If it is not, expect lots more. If DH is right about the homogeneity of readerships, this has already been surrendered to.

No bunch of ...I believe you're fundamentally wrong. No bunch of readers are any more intelligent than any others. That's the one thing I've learned in thirty years in publishing. If the cliché was true then Guardian readers wouldn't be locking their keys inside their car whereas Sun readers would be doing it all the time. Readers of the Financial Times are not cleverer than readers of the Mirror. If that was the case we wouldn't be in the state we are. Desmond's policy might work because people's need to believe in a fairy tale may be stronger than their grip on reality but the same thing applies to lots of coverage of the Obamas in the posh papers.
