Nick Clegg’s reshuffle: how did the press pack do?

Nick Clegg has “demoted” Steve Webb (The Independent) although he also “promoted” him (Daily Mail). Meanwhile, Chris Huhne was “stripped of some front-bench duties” (Daily Telegraph), although in fact giving those duties to David Howarth was actually just “rubber-stamping” the existing position (Daily Mail).

Promoted, demoted; stripped, not stripped; moved, not moved. It’s all the same isn’t it?
