Re: NME RIP
Jan 08, 2008, 13:09
This came up in an internet search I just did. Old news, but interesting, and does seem to back up the gist of what Morrissey is saying.

This bit in particular is interesting:
Guardian Unlimited wrote:
Called upon to explain how the poll was compiled, however, Mr McNicholas said: "The mechanics are a reflection of NME editorial policy. It's a very fuzzy process. We take a vote in the office; it's quite informal."

A spokesman for the magazine later clarified the situation, saying: "All the writers are asked for their top 50 albums of the year, which is then collated and passed to the editors.

"This is probably an early working document, nothing more. There's nothing suspicious going on."

Sounds like the kind of gerrymandering that'd put a smile on Robert Mugabe's smarmy fizzog
