British Tabloid News of the World axed by News International

some commentators - on cnn - saying he will replicate the Sun newspaper for a new Sunday edition perhaps ...
 
I'm glad it's gone because it was a piece of shit. But this is nothing more than a diversionary tactic.

The Sun on Sunday - Same shit, different name.

So sad. Now Trebus will have nothing on which he can hone his literary skills. :(

You know, you could just tell me what the other thread's address is. I mean, I do have the same privileges as king1919...

Just sayin'

Probably done for some legal reasons, close it down and dump all it's staff before they get further investigated and sued for millions. The longer the paper stays around the more dirt will be uncovered which will continue to tarnish News Corp, Murdoch couldn't have that as he seeks govt approval for his BSkyB takeover bid. Also running The Sun 7 days will save on running costs and was already being considered.

My problem is that the lax journalistic integrity that the Brits have is basically *seeping* its way over here.... :weeping:

Mr Murdoch is a US citizen, aren't you the lucky ones.
