In view of the Observer's longtime association with the Guardian, I
emailed the letters page of the Guardian with a copy of the email I sent
Will Hutton, as follows:

(email letters@guardian.co.uk, editor@observer.co.uk)


Sir,

I append the contents of an email sent to Will Hutton, editor of the
Observer, following an article he published which would have been more
worthy of inclusion in the News of the World or the Sunday Sport.

I would be most interested to hear the Guardian's view on the matter.

------------ quote ---------------

Dear Mr Hutton

Your "newspaper"'s attack on Clive Feather was absolutely disgusting and
worthy of the description "gutter journalism".

It also shows an astonishing lack of knowledge of the Internet and how
it functions.

I have been a lifelong Guardian reader, and I can say without a doubt
that if such an ill-informed article had appeared in the Guardian I
would have cancelled my subscription immediately. I only hope they have
the sense to condemn the Observer.

I am in no doubt that you will be the subject of a libel action and I
sincerely hope the damages are sufficient to jeopardise the future
existence of the Observer.
