    Why doesn't somebody just post a thread "Can George Lee walk on water?"

    I doubt this is exclusive. Papers put that on the front all the time.

    Case in point is the "exclusive" Mirror story about Pamela Izevbekhai that has lasted for weeks here. It was in all the other paper as well.
    Well I would imagine he will hold off on the main papers until he is ratified at the convention.

    While papers do indeed overuse and abuse the term 'exclusive', that was not the case with the Mirror's story on Mrs Izevbhekhai.
    They got the story about the imaginary child and printed it. It was indeed in every other paper - a day later.

    They chose the man because he had credibility and then he does an interview with the Daily Mail. Go figure.
