WHY I SUPPORT THE SUN NEWSPAPER

Having never purchased a copy of The Sun, and having little time for the Murdoch Media Empire, I surprise myself in supporting the newspaper's coverage of Jaqui Janes vs the Prime Minister. The decisive moment in this story came for me when a BBC Radio 4 PM male presenter interviewed The Sun's editor, and suggested that Ms Janes was psychologically damaged - which she is by the circumstances of her son's death in Afghanistan - and therefore not fully in possession of her faculties. How deeply offensive to the woman ! Neither the former Deputy Prime Minister nor New Labour's former Director of Communications were, by their own addmission, fully in control of their faculties when running the country : a state which the Prime Minister may yet admit to himself. Perhaps it's only so-called alpha males who are entitled to feel psychologically damaged and give interviews to the Media.
