Joani Walsh, a freelance journo has been comissioned by the Daily Mail for a story on a young femail binge drinker, here's the details if you're interested -
===================
New statistics suggest the group most vulnerable to binge drinking is that of teenage girls from a well-off background. If you know any teenage girls who have been or are binge drinkers and who may wish to share their experiences on the record - with their family's cooperation and involvement - the Daily Mail would like to talk to you.
They're willing to pay a substantial sum for a story that meets their requirements. Please contact Joani Walsh on 07803 618116,
joaniwalsh7@hotmail.com walsh.joani@gmail.com.
Initial conversations or queries will be treated with confidence so please make contact if you'd like to find out more. Thank you.

Would that be a shocking expose of the dark side of middle class drinking so they can instill more fear in their readership?
Let's see if we can guess how that story will end...
Seriously, after all the Mail has said about this place, do you really think that you will get anyone?
Also, I know that this is a charity, but do you really need to sell your souls...?
Not one other paper, from any part of the political spectrum has ever offered so much as a penny to any of our users, no matter what they end up writing - and I'd rather provide people with the opportunity to be involved in something by their own choice rather than censoring what is offered based on a political decision.
And to make it clear, we don't get a penny for this or anything else in this section, but if someone wants to make a few thousand pounds to help them through Uni by taking part in a story that's gonna get written anyway, I'm hardly gonna take that opportunity away.
If they want wealthy kids, money probably won't attract them. How about offering a case of champagne?
I don't know any middle class binge drinkers that would admit to being binge drinkers. If you get me!
I can see it now...
Oh yes, and apparently, the Mirror published a link to a "Pullometer" that TheSite had up a few years ago. Wonder if that got anyone new subscribed to the boards?
I'm pretty sure that they did...

Okay, it's mainly about the NOTW story, but the Mail gets a mention too...

If you go into it appreciating that you'll be fine.
aren't you stereotyping yourself by putting yourself in a group in the first place?
