Burchill's back

As our fun end-of-year Media quiz noted, the length of time between ace columnist Julie Burchill's announcement of her "retirement" from journalism last year and an eight-page Diana pullout written by her appearing in the Sun was not all that long. In Julie's defence, she did actually write the piece before giving up weekly columnising. But today's Sun has a full-pager from Ms Burchill, standing in for Jane Moore. Is she missing the buzz of being a hackette? Monkey's new year's prediction: Burchill will be back as a regular columnist at a national newspaper before the year is out. Just wait and see.
