I want to complain about this content:

Sorry to say I find this editorial distasteful in the extreme. Happily the EDP is NOT a national newspaper and the editor does not run a cheque-book journalism bunch of thugs like some of the natiuonal media. But for him to abandon his own readers against the might of the Murdoch and other empires is a dereliction of the duty any local editor is expected to hold. Leveson recommended statute backed regulation (which Ms Miller lied about yesterday) and he did it because this was the last-chance saloon. Time and again the nettle of press regulation has not been grasped and the time had come. It is not even the ordinary media that are the risk - technology makes it possible for unqualified oafs blogging to destroy lives. The time for legiuslation was now. And it would not have had the slightest effect on campaign like those referred to by the editor of the EDP who should be ashamed for that blatant exaggeration. Shame on you.
