More cruise ship clangers

We're not entirely sure what it is, but something about the Costa Concordia cruise ship disaster earlier this week seems to have prompted a rash of unwise juxtapositions among every kind of journalist.

First there was the Guardian's headline/picture combo. Then the Belfast Telegraph's unfortunate ad placement.

Now a reader sends in this, from The Star in Johannesburg, South Africa.


Worst of all, though, is this - much close to home, and as the reader who pointed it out said, it's really an unfortunate ad placement within an unfortunate ad placement.


What we can we say? It happens to the best of us. Bloody Google ads...
