Get enough booze in former Dennis Publishing chief Felix Dennis, and he's wont to tell you a story about how he killed a man. Leave it to lad magger Dennis to make his stories about frequenting hookers and going on all-night coke binges completely uninteresting; it's the one about when, 25 years ago, he pushed a guy over a cliff because he was abusing a lady.

That's the story being reported by the Times of London's Ginny Dougary, who was asked by Dennis, a day after the interview was conducted, to leave out that little anecdote. His doctors even told him that he was in a weak mental state when the interview took place. And after a dozen paragraphs wishy-washing between whether she would print the story out of concern for Dennis' mental health, Dougary, obviously, eventually does.
