I agree with him. It is old fashioned.
It's not something I really think about.
He could hire some journalists and turn the thing into a newspaper.
Lol...that would be a good idea, Douglas...
as long as its a see-through veil it wouldn't bother me.
^Haaa! Sperlatt!
Compared to all the other things wrong with this Penny Dreadful, whether Sam Fox shows off her toothsome body or not isn't really important. Perhaps the Dirty Digger should concentrate on turning this rag, that makes so much money for him, into a proper newspaper, instead of getting in the news in a publicity campaign !
Question Author
Do we really want to be drifting into the realms of fantasy? The Sun, a proper newspaper, when it's coining money as it is?
Unfortunately, whatever educated and intelligent people think about rag publications like the Sun, its difficult to deny its influence of our Politics. The Fourth Estate always seems to win in the end.
Mikey, firstly, I don’t think it’s entirely fair to imply that all Sun readers are uneducated and unintelligent, and secondly, as the newspaper with the highest circulation in the country, it could be said to be the one with its finger on the pulse of the nation. As you say, it does have an influence. Just an alternative way of looking at it.
The Sun is the paper of choice for people that don't have much time. When you only get 30 minutes lunch break you want something easy to read.

My OH buys The Sun and he's far more intelligent than me. He wants easy reading with his short lunch break.
Nowhere have I suggested that Sun readers are uneducated or non-intelligent, although why anybody with a good education would buy the thing is beyond me. I was merely suggesting that people like us can take the *** if we like but it does have an influence, as you have agreed. Its part of living in a democracy and having a free press. The burden of democracy as it were.
Like I said Mikey....time.
Mikey, I beg to differ.

//...whatever educated and intelligent people think about rag //

.... implying that those who read it aren't.
'people like us' 'the burden of democracy'
dear, oh dear. ;-(
:o)
and 'easy reading' includes 'chantal' with huge boobs who works for charity and loves children....lol! The OP is not about whether The Sun is a proper newspaper, its asking if topless girls a necessary in this day and age and my opinion is NO, it is an awful role model to girls and encourages males to treat females in a derogatory way.
I beg to differ as well Naomi. I am quite capable of saying things with plain English, as you are well aware and rarely resort to implying anything.

And I stand by everything I have said.
I'm sure you do.
Retro....I agree but its the lowest common denominator that publications like the Sun use all the time, as do the advertising industry. And they do it because it works and makes shedloads of money in the process ! We have come a long way in recent times but there is still much work to do.
