Jade Goody

[Gnevin]

If you dont want to read/hear about it dont buy the Sun/Mirror/Star or watch Living Tv. Anyone that buys those papers deserve to be fed all the shite of the day.

I don't but every second ad is about her story and their was thing on RTE new about her too.

In fairness Max Clifford could negotiate a good price for live coverage of her coming down from heaven. I'd watch it. It's a nice touch putting Jade Goody 1981-2009 when she's still alive!

Are you sure? Look at the issue number. Or is that the ultimate irony???

[ziggysego]

Never noticed the issue numbr 

However, it is true. ITN News were on about it earlier today.

[Tony Baloney]

Dead.

[ONeill]

That's that then.

Sad to hear of a young death.

its sad that her kids have no mother

Its sad & shocking that someone so young would die of cancer. As regards the media coverage - expect to see Jack Tweed and or Jeff Brazier (the father of her two children) try to carve out a media "career" on the back of this. There will be a few "My Jade cancer hell" stories from her ma and Tweed in various magazines and red tops in the next week. Nobody can take issue with her trying to earn money for her children but i have a feeling we would have went down this road even if she had no children.

   There has been a huge upsurge in women going for smear tests after hearing about Jade Goody and obviously that is good news, but what does it say about modern society that it takes a "celebrity" to have her slow painful death broadcast before women think of going for a smear test? Women receive letters from their local doctors when they are due for a smear test & reminders if they dont appear but obviously ignore them, do they think the doctors are just doing it for the craic?

Wall-to-wall coverage on Sky News.

Nothing else is happening in the world.

On another note, her mother has asked for privacy today. Sky have a lady standing outside her house telling us this. Every hour.

100% correct, it is very sad at such a young womans life being lost.  But the husband is and always was in it for the money.
