Rooney makes it in The Star and Alive

Yesterday's Irish Daily Star carried a story on soccer ace Wayne Rooney on its front page.

"Apart from red-faced Roo, fame-hungry vice girl Jenny Thompson scored with 13 other soccer aces - six defenders, three midfielders and four stirkers". One of two paragraphs on its front page.

This is the same Wayne Rooney who recently appeared on a lead page of Alive newspaper. Alive is a fundamentalist style right wing newspaper that says it is Catholic in content.

Alive pictured Wayne Rooney with a Rosary beads around his neck and in the blurb the reader was told what his faith meant for him.

In the current issue of Alive there is a short piece on a poll taken in Germany showing that the Germans want to leave the euro and put the Mark back in their pockets.

The newspaper is a collection of hate pieces that are most disturbing. Anytime it can find anyone or anything that seems to support its 'cause', they appear as some sort of role models.

Every page of the newspaper contains hate stories and many of them are wrapped up in a sexual context.

Thankfully there is a statment at the bottom of the front page distancing itself from the Irish Dominican province.
