Many papers are still exercised about "Smeargate," as the Sun describes the furore over the leaked emails from a former senior aide of Gordon Brown.
The Times, in an editorial, says "sorry" seems to be the hardest word for Mr Brown.
It concludes that, although he was not personally responsible for the insulting emails, he should apologise.
But some papers are tiring of the story, as the Mirror says job fears, not smears, are what matter now

Fir tree
The strange case of Artyom Sidorkin is picked up in several papers.
The Daily Star says doctors in Russia's Ural mountains were convinced he had cancer when he complained of chest pains and began coughing up blood.
But when surgeons cut him open they found the cause of his discomfort was not a tumour, but a fir tree growing on his lung.
The Daily Mail says medical staff believe Mr Sidorkin inhaled a seed which later sprouted inside him.
