Misleading Headline?
Is the Mail on Sunday trying to stir up hatred against gay people (again)?

Yes it is misleading but what else do you expect from the Daily Wail ? The Wail always has to slip in an anti Gay, anti immigrant, anti benefit claimant or what ever is on their current 'hate list' slant to every story. With this one they have managed to get an anti gay and anti benefit claim slant by mentioning 'tax payer funded' and ' gay' in one sentence.

Incidentally, the headline in the paper version is worse.

I follow a Twitter feed which reviews bad newspaper stories. It linked to the paper version of the paper, rather than the online version.

AOG, would you prefer that lesbian women falsely enter into marriage with a man solely for the purpose of getting pregnant before divorcing him?
There is a huge shortage of sperm donors at the moment and I think that is because of a change in law that removes the anonymity of the donor when the child reaches 18.

This is in the body of the report and totally contradicts the headline:
Heterosexual couples with fertility problems who need donations as part of IVF treatment will be among the customers of the new bank.
But a large percentage are predicted to be professional, single females who decide to have a baby without a man.
And based on current trends, more than a quarter of all the recipients are likely to be gay women.

/// Laura Witjens, NGDT chief executive, said:
‘The [demand from] same-sex couples and single women has grown exponentially. It’s become more socially acceptable to say, I haven’t found a guy yet, don’t want to wait for him, still want a child.’
She added: ‘The aim is that we will have enough surplus sperm so that we will be able to set up a service for people like single women and same-sex couples.’ ///

There appears to be some who won't be happy until men are made a redundant species.
/// And based on current trends, more than a quarter of all the recipients are likely to be gay women. ///
/// Latest available figures from the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority show that in 2011, 4,101 cycles of donor insemination were carried out in the UK. ///
/// Of these, 1,271 related to women registered with a female partner. That figure represents more than a quarter of the total and was a 23 per cent increase from the previous year. ///

I'm not sure either sp !
But moaning at the DM is like peeing into the wind. The DM prints what DM readers want to read...DM readers don't read anything that challenges their narrow right-wing view of life, otherwise they probably wouldn't read the DM in the first place. Just ignore the paper sp, even when its being misleading and offensive.

scooping - what I mean is...I am criticising a newspaper for producing a story with a wildly misleading and inaccurate headline. I am in no way suggesting that Vladamir Putin, president of Russia, should take over the Press Complaints Commission.
...if that's what you meant.
And for clarity, I also don't endorse any of the following taking the job:
Alan Sugar
Barack Obama
Latoyah Jackson
Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah
The Queen
Freddie Flintoff
Johann Schneider-Ammann
Gabriel Byrne
Carol Vorderman
King Norodom Sihamoni
Not a completely comprehensive list, but I'm sure you get my drift.
