The telegraph for a  short period of time yesterday published a story regarding Gordon Brown and requests from ministers to apologise for the economy. Yeah yeah so what…well some cheeky fellow at the Telegraph decided to end the URL that the story was on with Gordon Brown is a cunt…

    I think you might have made the same mistake the Guardian’s Media Monkey column made, in not realising the Telegraph site allows you to adapt its urls as you want – including the charming way someone’s done with this story.

    My mistake was no mistake. The telegraph shouldn’t be such search optimzation whores and stuff keywords into the end of their URLs…

    Other fine examples can be found here…

    [for the geeks, it looks like the reason the telegraph link got cached by google, is that the dodgy URL was linked to from a website and the telegraph was using a 302 rather than a 301 redirect to forward pages, I believe this has been fixed...]
