We weren't contacted by The Sun. I can only assume they were rummaging around for stories and found this one in their files. It's not true anyway - he spent very little time at the school because he was filming so often. So there was never a ban."
Yea that sounds like The Sun alright! The paper is likie on of the best selling but why they have to print these stupid, untrue, twisted stories is beyond me!

Quote:

"We do follow his progress, but we were amazed to see our name in the press again. There were a few wry smiles here about how out of date their story was."
Yea didnt that come up when it was posted here before! I thought about it and they were like a whole year off :lol: Haha How could that happen! Umm....Well they prob didnt do they're research enough!

I thought it was funny how Rupert was "Slightly amused!" Haha. I would be! Its crazy! But then again so is The Sun!

dan_4_elle 09-24-2005 09:14 AM

trust the Sun to write something like that

Raazia 09-24-2005 10:19 AM

trust media to spread false stories *rolls eyes*
It's amazing how other kids respected Rupert's privacy...amazing disclipine.....

mysterious 09-24-2005 11:11 AM

they do this just to sell because they know that the hp fans will buy things with news about hp in them. and this is the proof that they'd been lying. i really don't like it when people fool others just for their own sake.

loony 4 ........ 09-24-2005 11:42 AM

I always enjoy reading stuff like this. I think the Sun was only trying to make itself popular. Glad to know that Rupert acts like any other student in school :)

Stingersinger53 09-24-2005 11:46 AM

I think that is hilarious its also kinda mean how they spread stuff about celebs

You know what? I don't get why all the news sites picked it up - and now you think they'll posted this story? I doubt it. They'd rather focus on the negative, fluffy garbage than the honest truth. >:/ So sick of it - sick of the dozens of sites that have posted this idiotic nonsense.

They should. We knew all along it wasn't true; the reason for posting it was, in my case, to make sure fans knew it was rubbish. These type of publications are sometimes read by gullible fans and it isn't right that they make them believe false things about the people they look up to.

But still to ban it I think is really funny.
But that never happened.

And you don't seem to like the Sun too much, do you?
As a journalism undergraduate, no. It sickens me to think these people call themselves journalists. I have to spend £10,000 studying to become one and it just makes me lose faith in the whole industry when you see things like this being printed. It's atrocious.

My dad and I are having an argument about journalism and the media, and what they do for society. He insists that "while they are important, they're not as important as scientists and engineers." I'm extremely mad, because I, like you, have plans in the journalism field. And of course, the only reason he's saying this is because we're surrounded by tabloids like the Sun the totally ruin the name of journalism.

I've never seen that in the that magazine........That sounds more like something out of The Weekly World News. I love the headlines of that magazine because they show creativity and imagination, and gives me something to laugh about at work.

I hate tabloids that deal with celebrities because, though people think they have imaginations and off the wall, like with Rupert, they still do the same thing. The ony difference between the Sun and the other ones is the Sun has the worst timing, which made it even more obvious.

I suppose it comes down to what you believe. Not all journalists are Rita Sketter wannabes. Sir Trevor McDonald for one. There are many credible newspapers, broadsheets and magazines out there. It's just that the majority buy into the tabloids and therefore fund poor journalism. People complain about it but in a sense by buying it all they're just as bad and are encouraging it to grow.

Stormdancer 09-24-2005 02:31 PM

Amen Emma.! To all of your speeches, especially the one on page 1 that Liss agreed with.

Sir Trevor is a brilliant news-reporter. :yes:

MiracleManHP17 09-24-2005 03:03 PM

Why would someone make-up a story like that...........:hmm:

Kazters 09-24-2005 03:48 PM

i think this artical should be forwarded to the sun!

Melissapetey31 09-24-2005 03:49 PM

hummm....you gotta love the media!

SuperJess! 09-24-2005 04:16 PM

They probally wanted to make Rupert out to be one of those demanding Child stars!

waterLily 09-24-2005 04:50 PM

Wow, whoever has enough time to make up stories like that one must have no life.
