...is what they announce. "See tomorrow's Gulf News for full details."
Then, tomorrow, this. ("Fire, croc and mermaid latest e-mail spoofs")
Why report on something that might be a spoof when known the day before? Is this what modern-day reporting has come to in a restricted UAE media scene?

Second link doesn't work :-(
Heya hun... I'm still reading Gulf News almost daily from waaaaaaaaaaay over here. They are trying REAL hard to sensationalize their paper, and it's obvious - even from the wording in some of the more serious articles. My bet is, it's the new competition they're afraid of; it's turning them into a tabloid of sorts.
By the way has anyone got all the mermaid photos? I never got the email, so only saw the one in Gulf News, but apparently there were several.
soon there'll be UFOs sightings.
DJ: there's been about 3 UFO sightings (as far as I can remember) over the last 20 years - all in the desert. In fact the last one I know off, perhaps in late 90's - seem quite real - the sighting was reported by a few Emiratis amongst them, an Army officer.
*thank you emiratesmac - I corrected the link. Long overdue thanks! Btw I was searching for something in google - rly can't rem what...whatever it was, your website was first! Good stuff
*tainted luv - I so miss you. Hope you're doing well down in Canada. Freezing? lol
*secretdubai - dearo, personally I don't know. I just saw the Gulf News article. That's where I get my news of late ;-)
