    IIRC the Mirror and the MEN are owned by the same company (alongside most other ‘local’ papers including the Birmingham Mail and the Bristol Post).

      So they might have the right to copy the text. But they still screwed it up.

      In another video posted at the weekend, Stimson makes it clear who he is fighting for Russia.

      The ending reads like a grammatical error. But in the Mirror they used a dash. At least that looks more clear, although I’d prefer a colon.

      In another video posted at the weekend, Stimson makes it clear who he is fighting for - Russia.

        Absolutely. Just a warning that one’ll drive themselves mad if they dig into every error produced in any Reach publication with the sheer amount of content they publish so quickly.

          I don’t intend to dig in! But it’s like entertainment journalism: there’s a very low bar!

          This seems like something that will move to GPT very quickly (if it hasn’t already).
