Harry's View Incorrect

Today's (Monday 5 April 2010) cartoon in the SCMP is baffling. Harry's View is usually pretty good, but this one about counterfeit anti-impotence drugs doesn't make sense. Or is there an alternative reasoning involved?

Will there be letters to the editor about this? Or will there be a statement in the Corrections and Clarifications section?

  1. Yes - good catch: some pretty tortured logic is needed for that to make sense. It would obviously read sensibly if it were "counterfeit contraceptive pills", but that's not what they're finding.
