Man U fans racist Romelu Lukaku chant?

But he had managed to achieve poor sales by turning the Mirror into a serious newspaper and banging on about Iraq. At one point, he downplayed a scoop about Ulrika's affair with Sven to lead with a serious story. He even received a fan letter from Anita Roddick, which I would have thought was the cue for any tabloid editor to jump off a cliff. But he liked his new approval rating among the chattering classes, possibly because he had left his wife for the Guardian journalist Marina Hyde. Anyway, while broadsheet commentators praised his new seriousness, Mirror readers scarpered at the rate of thousands a week

Even the gossip is partial. Absent from index and text alike, for example, is Marina Hyde, the younger journalist with whom Morgan is widely believed to have had an affair (I know Marina a little, and she has always resolutely denied it to me; I don’t call her a liar) and whose firing from the Sun is an important part of the background to Morgan’s feud with David Yelland. She appears only in the acknowledgments, by first name: ‘Marina, my best friend … unpaid but razor-sharp proof reader’. Did she help with the text? She’s a very good writer and The Insider is, intermittently, better written than Morgan’s column in the Standard. At one point, Morgan writes, ‘My computer messages amused.’ That fey, intransitive use of the verb ‘to amuse’ is a Hyde hallmark both in conversation and in print.
