I suppose her dying was sad but the way that the newspapers wrote about it was counter-productive in a sense - it changed a real-life tragedy (someone dying of cancer) into a Hallmarks weepie, about a perfect, charming princess who was brave to the end - which was always going to make the cynical (or less-easily-manipulated) react against it.

I found it strange though that everyone (well, the majority of newspaper columnists anyway) said how praiseworthy it was for Jade to make money for her children - the merest mention of words like 'mum', 'the children' and 'charity' makes people too pious in general - and yet nobody pointed-out that her children are millionaires anyway. How much do they need? Did Jade actually give any money to cancer charities? It would have given the whole thing a little more dignity; instead I couldn't rid myself of the thought that it was more vulgar money-grabbing.

I'd would do the same too, I thought it was potent when I first heard of it, but if you have an opportunity offered to you like that, can't blame her going for it. She's not worth anything dead.

Didn't she make her kids' mobile phone numbers public, or is that just some internet rumour?

I don't read the papers enough to know the 'truth', but apparently people were ringing both of them up to insult their own mother.

She might have been a nice person, still not everyone needs to care for someone you'd prefer not to know about, but whose face is plastered on everything that allows their face to be plastered on.

It's like appealing to the irrational side of the caring business with imposed grief-making.

So yeah, I'm sorry you died Jade, but really, I bet you wouldn't give a shit if I died of cancer, and I deserve all that dough more than you do while I'm still alive.

she didnt adhere herself to me personally..i always thought of her as someone who could play the fool easily but she was no fool, she learned quickly..
the sad thing is her demise and anyone who doesnt see the human tragedy in this is a cold hearted bastard.... the kids she leaves behind will always have a huge gap to fill..... very sad way to end..as for the televising of her last days...why the hell wouldmnt she do it..she used the media to her advantage...one day being slagged off by them, the next lapping her up like a saucer of milk....she profited in uit for her kids future...what mother wouldnt...... fair play to you jade.... well played!

Why the hell was the media so in love with her anyways? I mean, she was just some former Big Brother contestant. Of course it's terrible when a person dies of cancer at a young age but can anyone tell me why she was supposed to be something special?

She was a fetish for the middle classes, the pigshit thick deprived person who represents the 'working class', the lumpen proles from shithole no-where with no aspiration other than to make money for no ostensible reason. Woebetide anyone in the media who comes from a council estate but isn't (shock horror etc) thick as all hell.

Y'know, apart from Billy Bragg.

Because your average person is in love with her, of course.

The British middle classes can only deal with two types of people: clever and stupid. What they can't handle is smart. And Jade Goody, whatever else she may have been, was definitely smart.

I reckon she was just an expert in that particular field (tabloid promotion) rather than smart, i dont sense she could have applied herself to ANYTHING.

But on a more important note, your signatures continue to blow my mind. And has anyone seen Charlie Brookers Newswipe? Its a bloody great load of beauty.
