SCANDALOUS is a Scottish based satirical magazine specialising in poking fun at the recent events, mainly revolving around the British Political Scene. Founded by Professor J. Moriarty in early 2013, the magazine immediately rose to an esteemed position amongst the growing satirical industry that was flourishing at that time, predominantly amongst members of the Cult party The Real Spamicans[1], to whom Moriarty was a prominent member, and after a brief disappearance is once again growing in popularity as of October 2013.
Pre-SCANDALOUS
Before he began work as editor of SCANDALOUS, Professor Moriarty was editor of the semi-serious tabloid newspaper "The Scottish Independent". It was working for this newspaper that his skills as a satirist were first proven, examples of his humour found in the first article nationally released[2]. The Scottish Independent continued printing for a long time before satire and humour began to once again creep into the folds, and after the release of one article, "Plato Unleashes New Weapon",[3], business began to boom. One long-time subscriber, a Mr Iain Keers, described the article as "very amusing", and Moriarty began to stray towards the more comical side of publishing.
There was notable baiting of the Irish in a series of articles which left the editor amused at the outbursts from the foreigners, who were at the time losing to the UK. There is also the unofficial first SCANDALOUS article, which appeared in 2012 [4]and accused the King, Woldy, of executing the majority of the public service.
The Scottish Independent also ran various comics during its short spell in publication, including the highly treasured "eUK Ungulates" Series, which introduced the eUK's favourite mascot and animal, Kevin the ESO Trivia Goat.
