What do you mean what do I mean? There is an Internet campaign to make Ding Dong The Witch is Dead #1 the week Thatcher died. Clearly, that is going to be seen as distasteful by some which has resulted in somewhat censorship measures taken by BBC radio being planned for the weekly chart show broadcast.

The Sun, the most widely read 'news'paper in the UK (I write news like that because I think the paper is rubbish) is famous for their outlandish and often funny headlines. They have apparently found an actress that played a munchkin in the Wizard of Oz and therefore sang on the song that has managed to still be alive. Said munchkin has made it known she is not happy about the campaign to get the song number one. As ax result, the Sun was able to do this headline today.

When I heard that Thatcher died, I did not expect there to be a headline in the most widely read paper to involving a munchkin.

I am not sure how much more exact I can be than that.
