Dog doesn't eat dog

As per a throw-away line in the previous entry I noticed this morning that Susanna Reid wasn't wearing any rings including her wedding ring; just the sort of thing I notice and I wasn't the only one as in a piece about the sale of a flawless diamond a message was read about about her diamond-less fingers and she raised and waggled them.

Now as memory serves she's married with three kids that fact that no comment about having them sent for resizing or losing them was made is significant. So has she split up from her husband?

Why am I asking? Well apart from the fact she's damn fine looking there's almost no chance we'll ever find out because of the unwritten rules of the news - what happens in the newsroom stays in the newsroom.

So while they'll all gossip about Peter and Katie's split we won't hear about anything that happens to anybody in the news room unless it's 'good' news about pregnancy (Sian) or marriage (Kate Silverton) just don't expect inside gossip on Derek Draper from GMTV (married to Kate Garraway). Unless Private Eye pick it up, after all as I recall it was them and only them that discussed the alleged common assault by a newspaper editor on her celebrity husband.

What's news and what isn't? Whatever they decide.
