Not the grossest news...but the most ridiculous, far fetched and quite frankly disgusting (in a moral sense) headline of recent times

I'll leave anyone to find it if they like but I glimpsed it on Breaking News, the pictures of the Faroe Islands Dolphin Cull.

They are doing it every year in Taiji, Japan as well. https://www.dolphinproject.com/campaign ... -dolphins/
It was in the documentary Seaspiracy.
The Cove was the documentary that brought it to the public's attention

I misread the name of the funeral home as Downward instead of Downard :o

Here's a contender, from today's Guardian-Observer:
A vulnerable 18-year-old whose baby died after her calls for help were ignored as she gave birth alone in a prison cell was not provided with bereavement support – but the prison guards who failed to get her medical assistance were offered counselling

The details were buried in a devastating report from a prison watchdog published last week that described how the teenager was found in bed cradling her dead baby more than 12 hours after pressing her cell bell and telling staff at the privately run HMP Bronzefield that she needed an ambulance.

The young woman, in prison for the first time, was on remand facing a charge of robbery. She went into labour, and records show that on the evening of 26 September 2019 she called for help three times but none came.

By 11pm she was in constant pain and unable to reach her cell bell. After passing out, she came round to find her baby girl was there but not breathing. She bit through the umbilical cord and tried to wipe the blood from her cell before climbing into bed.

Despite overnight checks by guards, the baby’s death was discovered only after two prisoners raised the alarm. A nurse was called but failed to resuscitate the infant. Staff were later offered support from external counsellors.
