The huge pay rise enjoyed by Trinity-Mirror's ceo, Sly Bailey, attracts the attention of Stephen Glover in The Independent. It is an example of "classic fat cattery of the sort that newspapers often deplore", he writes. Peter Wilby in The Guardian deals with Fleet Street's desire for a challenger to Gordon Brown.
Peter Cole in the Independent on Sunday bemoans the fact that Britain's premier newspaper industry awards "lack the status, style and seriousness of their counterparts in the US." And Martin Newland in The Observer reports that Canadians are showing sympathy for Conrad Black's plight, which he shares. I don't agree but it proves, once again, that Martin is a thoroughly nice chap.
