Melanie Phillips... fired!?!



If I were a publisher and I had a columnist who generated controversy... and readership, I would do everything I could to hold onto that columnist.Tell that to London's Daily Mail.

The contract for Melanie Phillips' 12-year-old weekly column at the Mail will not be
renewed at year-end as the editor wishes to 'refresh the paper'.

Friends in England tell me that this has caused
astonishment
