The Daily Mail’s latest Bachelorette re-write

Dr Mumbo thinks it might be time for the Daily Mail to step away from The Bachelorette now.

Last night the website posted another Bachelorette paparazzi story – obviously the ‘court of public opinion wasn’t strict enough with its sentence after Ten’s injunction against its spoiler story on Thursday.

This time it purported to show the losing ‘hunk’ Michael Turnbull seeking comfort with a “mysterious brunette” on Friday.

Only as News.com.au points out that woman is in fact their own lifestyle reporter Vanessa Brown, who was conducting a pre-arranged interview with Turnbull. If you look closely at the Mail’s papped pictures you can even see the notebook in hand. Unsurprisingly the News Corp site has been quick to stick the boot into its fierce rival with the headline  ‘Daily Mail Australia has done it again, with a second Bachelorette paparazzi shoot missing the mark’.
