On the subject of tabloids, if they get proven wrong by someone, as they regularly do
whether it's libel, or some other form of misinformation, they should have to devote the same amount of coverage to the correction.

As an example I'm thinking specifically of that guy who's sued about six of them over Joanna Yeats's murder; before he'd even got out the police station they'd hanged, drawn and quartered him, and when it turned out to be someone completely different, their response was "Sorry ANYWAY here's a pair of tits!", which I don't think's good enough.

It would also be fun to watch the Daily Fail run millions of articles on how nice forrins are.

Oh yes.
Eventually they'd have to dedicate more room to corrections than to "reporting" (a sort of wrongness singularity) and there would be inaccuracies in their corrections too, leading to further corrections, so hopefully they'd eventually just sort of disappear up their own arsehole.
