A tough idea to swallow

Let's hope Stephen Glover is not setting himself up for a fall here. The Independent's media commentator writes today that if DMGT buys the paper he will eat a copy of it and the Daily Mail. ""Let me … put such credibility as I have on the line by saying that if the DMGT buys The Independent titles I will eat a copy of the Daily Mail and a copy of The Independent in front of witnesses, my only proviso being that that I should be permitted to choose any proprietary sauce or garnish I want in order to make the dish more digestible." If any deal does take place, Glover should probably steer clear of the Saturday edition of the Mail as it is rather large.
