Daily Mash Writer Very Proud of Self

Writer, Adam Summersgate

Yesterday freelance writer Adam Summersgate, 34 experienced a swell of  pride after uploading a fake news story onto the popular satirical website “The Daily Mash”. The piece – a faux eye witness account of Jodie Marsh literally scraping the bottom of a barrel  - is Mr Summersgate’s third contribution to the website which publishes fake news articles in order to satirise public figures. Mr Summersgate is said to have been particularly proud of his use of “journalistic language” which he felt gave the article a “feeling of gravitas”. He also opined his self satisfaction at having skewered his target (Marsh, Glamour Model) with expert precision.

“Journalistic language”

The new found self satisfaction was noted by many of Mr Summersgate’s friends including a Mrs Danielle Clough who said of the writer, “Yeah, he wrote an article about Jordan or something, he seemed pretty pleased with himself, which is nice because he’s been down lately. Apparently work on his novel has ground to a complete halt.” While there are no concrete plans yet, Mr Summersgate plans to follow up this article with a fake “Missing Poster” asking if anybody has seen “Nick Clegg’s Spine”. For the time being, however, Mr Summersgate plans to have a cup of tea and read a copy of “The Onion”.
