PR REPORTERS

ALLEGATIONS THAT GOOD Morning Britain host Ed Balls was asked to pick up milk and bread on his way home during an interview he did with his wife Home Secretary Yvette Cooper have been dubbed fake news by insiders.

A website entitled Edvertorial appeared soon after the interview, claiming that the alleged request for milk and bread had been cut from the finished broadcast.

“Ed has no balls,” the anonymous site proclaimed, saying that the interview was nothing more than a soft-soap Public Relations stunt. “Anyone who knows anything about the dynamics of marriage knows that husbands never interrogate wives. Wives, on the other hand … well, ask any husband. It wasn’t that Ed was interviewing his wife. It was that he was interviewing his ‘wife’. On television. In front of the world. Come on!”

Corner shops and supermarkets across London were asked to be on the lookout for Mr Balls and to inform Edvertorial if he obeyed his wife’s orders.
