And Now, On Newsnight…

June 29th, 2005

We just turned the TV over, to discover Newsnight was on. The voiceover started “—the self-proclaimed world expert in the condition, who has written extensively about his own symptoms.” Right at that moment I would have given anything for the condition to be narcissism.

Fortunately I was saved anything because that’s exactly what condition they were talking about. It’s now my favourite story of the year.

    Is there a web page for the story in question?

    Probably not. I’m assuming from this morning’s newspaper that the “self-proclaimed world expert” wasn’t really the focus of the item (though of course he could have been; we were just channel hopping) — but I expect you’ll be able to find lots of webpages about the story he was probably attached to, in which a judge dropped a murder charge to one of manslaugher because the defendant had narcissistic personality disorder.

    That part is not my favourite story. The part about murder. No.

    The ban stands, by 5 votes to 4. Closer than I expected it to be.
