Newspaper Society needs a good subbing

Private Eye journalist and blogger Adam Macqueen is less than impressed by the Newspaper Society's grasp of the English language.

Adam writes: "To quote Auberon Waugh: 'I thought I understood the English language well enough, but just what the fucking, sodding, shitting hell is this idiotic sentence trying to tell us?' "
