DAILY MIRROR CONVINCES ITSELF IT WAS RIGHT

We wonder if a newspaper, or collectively its staff, ever wakes up in the middle of the night and thinks 'did we do the right thing?' It's interesting to see the lengths that the paper is going to convince itself that shopping Kate Moss was the right thing to do: they've even wheeled up born again clean guy Elton John to say that it's a good thing, what they did:

Speaking for the first time about the 31-year-old model's fall from grace, he revealed: "I'm just glad Kate is there, I am happy she is doing something."

He explained: "I think Kate has made a really positive move. The Meadows is a great place. It is where two close friends of mine went. Kate is in very good hands."

Of course, Kate didn't actually appear to have much a problem before the story, whereas now she's having all sorts of trouble. We're not sure as she's marched through a stupid regime designed to placate the moral majority that she'll be quite as thrilled at having her privacy invaded as Elt seems to think she should be.
