One of the most catty twitter media bitch fights of recent memory. The claws are out between Mandrake’s Tim Walker and the Times Diary:
I want better from the somnolent @TimesDiary which has pictures of two dreary-looking chaps today and a tale about 'a noted typographer.'

.@TimesDiary @robmcgibbon Break some stories that are followed up by other newspapers and I will take you seriously.

@chrisdeerin @TimesDiary We never see them at parties, alas.
— Tim Walker (@ThatTimWalker) July 10, 2013
. @TimesDiary @chrisdeerin Can you tell me what it is that you do actually do, just so we all know?
— Tim Walker (@ThatTimWalker) July 10, 2013
. @TimesDiary @chrisdeerin No, I get it now and I like it. This could well catch on – a diary about people no one has heard of.
— Tim Walker (@ThatTimWalker) July 10, 2013
. @TimesDiary And I await the latest on that 'noted typographer.' PS: Someone had to big you up because God knows your own editor isn't.
