Don’t you remember the famous Sun front page “It’s The Sun wot won it!”?
They got rid of topless models on Page 3 a long time ago Bison but I think they still have women in bikinis? [Post edited 20 Jul 2020 15:53]

I don't but I've not bought a paper regularly for about 15 years , used to read the free Metro or Evening Standard when commuting but that's about it. My favourite headline of all time was prob this from 1990 , it rolls off the tongue.

Best job ever, being a sub editor at The Sun and getting to write those headlines. 😂 |  | | |

And yet the BBC gets slaughtered from the Left for being too biased to the Right? It can’t be biased both ways can it?
I guess you would only be happy if all the media was biased to the right.
Murdoch has been a huge problem for the democracy that many of you Brexit extremists keep banging on about. |
Part two is even more astonishing | | | |
| Rise of the Murdoch Dynasty on 17:57 - Jul 25 with 1330 views | Sadoldgit |
Just watched the first one. We all know about the Kingmakers in the Middle Ages so it is incredible that this sort of thing still goes on in this day and age. That the unelected Murdoch had and still has so much power over governments is beyond ridiculous in the 21st century. It isn’t taking back power from the EA we should worry about, it is taking back power from an Australian. The fact that someone like Andrew Neil can sit there quite happily talking about how much access and influence Murdoch and his executives wielded over the government should concern everyone. | | | |

Just watched it. It focussed on the phone hacking campaign and the great work that The Guardian and Max Mosley did to expose it. It is amazing that none of the Murdochs faced a jail term and that they effectively got away with it. The cynical move to close the a News of the World and throw many long term loyal employees under the bus and then launch The Sun on Sunday was typical Murdoch.
People worry that Gao is a right and proper person to run a football club but they should worry about Murdoch being a right and proper owner of such a huge media empire that still has huge influence on its readers.
My respect for John Major has grown since I learned that he ignored Murdoch’s threat about losing his support if he didn’t change his policies on Europe | | | |

I stopped subscribing to the sports channel some time ago although sadly we still watch Sky Atlantic. The trouble when someone is allowed to own so much of the media, it is hard to avoid them. | | | |

A lot more people will now know that Tony Blai shagged his misses! There were some upsides. James Murdoch finally grew a backbone and walked out. Elizabeth had a backbone all along and bailed years ago. Many negatives though. The power to influence voters across a number of countries should never be in the hands of one man.
We heard how he was instrumental in the elections here over the last 40 years. We heard how he was responsible for winning the Brexit vote and putting Trump on the throne. Oh the irony. We were told we were taking back power from the EU but all the way along we were being played by an Australian who was/is only concerned with doing what is best for himself.
Interesting that a former Sun editor believes that Brexit will damage Britain forever. Interesting too that Andrew Neil talked about the extent of his political power in the UK, US and Australia but how no one in Brussels takes any notice of him. Little wonder he put so much effort into the Brexit campaign.
Murdoch should have been dead and buried after the phone hacking scandal. Instead he rose again to bend much of the Western world to his will. So much for democracy. | | | |

Yes I forgot that! That was the reason that he fell out with James. His response to the questions about climate change said it all about how he only cares for himself. Think of the good he could have done for the planet with all the power that he amassed. Instead he will be remembered for looking after his own interests and destroying people lives through his murky media empire.
Dennis Porter put things into perspective when he told the story about calling his pancreatic cancer Rupert and saying that he wanted to shoot the bugger. His point about bringing society down to the gutter through his newspapers was spot on. No one dumbs down like Murdoch. | | | |

Why? There are some people who are extreme in their views about leaving the EU. Why wouldn’t they be called Brexit extremists? Would you say that someone like Farage was passive in his view about leaving the EU? | | | |

I can’t see how, with a binary decision, anyone voting ‘in’ or ‘out’ can be an extremist.
It’s like you can’t be a little bit dead. You cant be a little bit pregnant and you can’t be a little bit ‘pompey’. You’re either one or the other and it doesn’t make you ‘extreme’ (except in the case of pompey obvs when, to be fair, that would make you an extreme cvnt). | |
