'Yesterday'

A quick mention for something that has already been covered on The Media Blog.

The front page of the Express on 12 January looked like this:


Under the image, the caption reads:

A snowplough battles through the blizzards battering the M6 in Cumbria yesterday.

Yesterday? That's odd, given that the Express used the very same photo on 7 December 2012.

Given the paper's penchant for over-the-top, worst-case-scenario weather headlines, this may not have been an accident.

But if it was, it follows other recent photo errors such as the Czech soldiers it said were British, and the Dutch Olympians it said were British.

  1. Nathan Rao must be wetting himself with excitement at the fact that it is *actually* snowing.
    He is truly a weather genius.
