Paper Monitor

14:50 UK time, Wednesday, 4 July 2012

A service highlighting the riches of the daily press.

In the wake of Bob Diamond's resignation, and on the day the Barclays boss is being quizzed by MPs, Paper Monitor can't help but notice sub editors are having a field day.

is the headline favoured by both the Guardian and the Times, while the i paper goes for "Diamond cut".

The Daily Mirror favours the succinct but satisfactory

While the Daily Express explains how saying the Barclays boss had it all - "the flashy name and the fabulous pay packet", before he came crashing down amid a string of controversies in the City of London.

Meanwhile, the Daily Mail reflects on what it calls after Mr Diamond implicated the Bank of England in the Libor rate-fixing scandal.

Never one to miss an opportunity to flash some flesh, the paper also has a big picture of Diamond's daughter, Nell - wearing a slashed-to-the-thigh dress - after she tweeted what it calls a "crude tweet from his loyal daughter" hitting back at politicians.

Paper Monitor won't repeat the tweet, but the Daily Telegraph decided to give the story a similar treatment, using the same photo of the 23-year-old under the headline "Standing up for daddy".

Call us cynical, but we bet her Twitter page is pretty popular today.
