This is from the Guardian's
live election blog. It's worth repeating as a demonstration of the way certain elements of the media have deliberately discarded the notion of reporting new in favour of trying to distort the public sphere:
The Sun is looking a bit daft this morning. Alongside the headline "Fears for £ as Gord hijacks Lib talks" (on the print edition), its frontpage splash says markets are expected to dump the pound today following Gordon Brown's attempt to stop David Cameron forming a government.
DEFEATED Gordon Brown yesterday sparked fears of a City meltdown after trying to hijack a Tory-Lib Dem deal for a unity government.
His bid to rise from the dead by persuading the Lib Dems to prop him up raised the prospect of a stock market "Brown Monday".
If this is a Brown Monday, let's have more of them. As I write, the stock market is up 5%. And sterling is up 1.2% against the dollar.

I rather like the Guardian Live Blog and the articles of such political un-biasness that appears with it, the only highlight of this whole farce in my view.
