I only wish the papers would delete her. | ||||||

If people stop buying them and they will. She's less irratating if you take no notice of her |

So we are governed by her as to which paper we buy, she is in every paper, why? I don't know. I have already been PM'd for my thoughts, wrongly, in my opinion, but will take note of what has been said and will write with caution next time. | ||||||

Try not buying a paper - no one has to
If she's in a paper you'd normally buy try telling them if she's putting you off buying it They only print junk because it is accepted |

Don't agree with that at all. Buying a paper is as natural to me as breathing. I hate the coverage of Jordan and her ilk and have informed the editor accordingly. That is the way forward, not retreating and giving something that is part of your life. |

| FallonFacta |
That's what I suggested to you do agree really

She is not in the Independent, which is why I know nothing about her......
I suggest that if more people voted with their feet (as well as writing to the editor, which is a very good way of getting rid of hostile feelings but doesn't do much in the end!) by not buying papers in which she appears, things might conceivably change. After all, newspapers exist to make money, they are not a public service. People have a choice - to buy a paper that they want to read, or not. If they like to buy a paper (as I do) but get increasingly discontented with the form or nature of the coverage, then buy a different paper - it won't make any difference to the overall situation, but YOU'LL feel better!! |

I must have missed those......2008, surely you don't expect me to remember that far back?? And I get confused, why is she called Jordan when she is called Katie Price, or vice versa? I now know that they are one and the same person, but I had no idea before.... |

I think, although could be wrong, that the name Jordan has something to do with the now defunct Jordan F1 team. I know she did a lot of modelling for them in her early career but they could have employed her because of her name. Wikipedia does not explain why she is called Jordan |

| FallonFacta |
You're kidding?!?!??!!

I most certainly am not  Read this interview with her where she(sort of) backs the theory up.

from memory, or is it mammary, at the time she was the "jordan girl" Eddie jordan and she got publicitiy on her being known as "jordan" and this was a big leg up for her and a big publicitiy thing for the team.
no reason to be coy about it as it certainly worked for noth of them (thats katie and eddie, not the twins) |

Can't remember where I heard it but it implied she was called Jordan because her legs could stand on either side of the river Jordan, don't think it is true even though the river is not that wide.
