| 1 | * AccidentalInnuendo: Sometimes seen in Colemanballs / Commentatorballs, and they also occasionally publish examples of this from newspaper articles (this used to be a much more prevalent feature, back when manual typesetting meant that amusing typos were more common in newspapers). |
| 2 | * BrokenBase: Their treatment of Julian Assange is unrelentingly negative - as far as the ''Eye'' is concerned, he is a shifty, anti-Semitic, irresponsible, vain sex offender. This has fractured the base into people who agree with this treatment and people who think that the ''Eye'' and Assange are natural allies. |
| 3 | * LifeImitatesArt: Following [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Sarah_Payne the abduction and murder of Sarah Payne in 2000]], the ''News of the World'' ran a name and shame campaign against alleged paedophiles. An ''Eye'' cartoon showed a hate mob chasing a paediatrician, mistaking him for a paedophile. Whilst the issue was ''on sale'', a paediatrician in South Wales had her house vandalised by people who had taken her job title to mean she was a paedophile. |
