Today’s Veitchness

The HoS report that Veitch has tried to take his life for the third time.

Another HoS story reports on the latest exchanges between the camps. And a third covers the debate on the altered references, and whether they have broken the law.

A fourth HoS story (yes four!) covers the end of the relationship and some e-mails showing friendly relations after the attack. A fifth HoS story has the text of an e-mail. And Kerre Woodham wants people to move on.  And finally in their seveneth online story, the HoS Editorial says Veitch should remove himself from the public spotlight. The editorial is right, but I note the newspaper is very happy to devote half the newspaper to him, if he doesn’t!

The SST is slightly more restrained. They report a psychologist saying both Veitch and Dunne-Powell need to move on and stop the pot shots. A second SST story looks at how Veitch courted the press. Michael Laws has his say. A fifth SST story covers the latest suicide attempt. And their sixth story has Rosemary McLeod telling Veitch to shut up now.

So 13 stories in our two main Sunday papers on Veitch. Please let it be zero next weekend.
