Sanctuary rumor in Liberation (France)

Note to the press, this is a report of a rumor, according to this statement, Morrissey is not currently signed. benjamin writes:

French n°2 daily newspaper Liberation, in today's edition (Feb. 5):
" Delicate pop singer Morrissey, after a long year of errance, has finally signed a record deal with Sanctuary Records, a label famous with tougher clients (Megadeth, ...). The information was given in the alleys of the Midem, the international Record Industry Annual Convention."

Once again the same rumor. It seems a bit strange again it comes so late in a newspaper which is so serious (probably the best French paper after LE MONDE). The information is unverified and presented as a certainty.

  • Not that it matters but according to the report this rumour-reprint appeared in Liberation, not Le Monde (title is incorrect ?)

    ...the Crime they styl'd 'Anonymity.' That is, I left messages posted publicly, but did not sign them. -- Thomas Pynchon

  • Did they ever publish a retraction of the original report from MIDEM?

    Have they revealed who they quoted (or misquoted)?

  • If you repeat a lie enough times - it becomes the truth. So maybe he has signed the deal.

  • Do you really think that Morrissey would sign with a lable that had a reputation of being as involved in the same sick opprutunistic money grubbing petty plots as those involved with sucking up money like Metallica?
