the Sunday Tribune is now referring to this as Picturegate, I wonder if Cow And Gate has trademark issues?

I think this story would have died a very quick death had it not been for the online outrage. We know that one major radio station regularly sources stories from twitter, and others tend to keep at least half an eye on what’s happening online. The Irish Times journalist who pushed the story was Conor Pope, who we know to be a reader as well as a writer of blogs. And the Tribune’s coverage the other day was partly in consequence of Una Mulally’s awareness of the huge online reaction (and partly, admittedly, because they ran the story that started it all)
The Herald recently had the nerve to say that “media coverage [of picturegate] sparked a flurry of online activity” when the truth was surely the opposite.

@Mark, can’t you see, the images are clearly attributed to the internet.
