# Even DM
readers are pissed off so much with her, P45 monday morning methinks

# Badly misjudged
She probably thought that the average DM reader would lap up her scurrilous poisonous shit, and generally they do. However she forgot a few basic rules:
1) the poor sod isn't even cold yet, and is awaiting burial
2) the guy was out, but was in the background, and largely away from the media circus. The sort of gay that DM readers tolerate
3) The tone was so overtly toxic that it just left a foul taste in the mouth.

She and her editor need a few basic rules in manners, and if that doesn't work, well I'm sure The Sun can help them out on the reasons why they aren't stocked in certain parts of Liverpool, over 20 years later

# She's changed the title too.
It was originally "Why there is nothing 'natural' about Stephen Gately's Death", and she's changed it to "A Sad, Lonely, Troubling Death" in a cynical ploy to dodge criticism.

Will be posting a link to a 10 Downing Street e-petition asking Gordon Brown to publicly condemn this article and the more general lowering of standards in the British press. I reckon a politician will welcome an opportunity to criticise the media for something. They usually jump at the chance, and he may as well do something useful.

Will post link tomorrow when the petition has passed moderation (unless someone else started one first).
