Yesterday, I wrote a post expressing my disgust with a BBC News picture caption, which informed the reader that one of the subjects of the piece calls his fiance "baby doll". Today, that caption has changed, but sadly not for the better. Whereas before the caption read "Kelly Hildebrandt -left and right. He calls her "baby doll", now it says "Kelly Hildebrandt (left) calls Kelly Hildebrandt (right) "baby doll". Rather than get rid of the nauseating "baby doll", the BBC has done away with the only creative bit of the caption - i.e. the 'left and right' part.
Obviously, the mouthful of testicles the caption had before wasn't sufficient, and the BBC felt there was room for a few more. TV licence money well spent, then.
