Read all about it! (on the internet first)
The good news is that the traditional press can no longer pretend that the internet doesn't exist. The Mirror was recently forced to admit they'd "borrowed" a Photoshopped image of the Argentinian football team clutching handbags from a user of B3ta.com, and the hundreds of emails we've received from Heat readers in the past week show that people do notice when a story already been broken online is claimed as an "exclusive" in print. The fact that many people now turn to the internet to check the facts behind stories they read in newspapers or see on TV means that online magazines can no longer be considered the black sheep of the media family.
