They will probably re name it and launch a 'New more responsible' newspaper. Karma sometimes works slowly but work she always does! | |||

With all the joy that's about to be expressed on this thread, please remember that this story was broken *by* journalists. Murdoch has killed a paper with 150 years of History to save Brooks and his Son. Perhaps this will shock the proles into no longer wanting to read the prurient shite peddled recently by NI. The UK has lost an institution, and it's nothing to crow about.

With respect, I think it is something to crow about. NoTW hasn't exactly been progressive or a force for good; certainly not a force for tolerance and inclusiveness of diversity in the sexual or other realms. "Wisdom begins in wonder” (Socrates) | |||

Perhaps not recently, but not over the last 150 years.

Agreed. Murdoch will just change the name and have pretty much the same staff. It'll probably be called The Sun on Sunday- or something equally as unimaginative. | |||

There's already a Sunday Sun in the North East. Just remember, when you think you're free, that crack inside your fucking heart is me. Edited 7 Jul 11, 5:18 PM by x_Pan_x | |||

Yeah in the same way that the loss of Louis XVI was a blow to an institution in france! I do crow and in fact dance upon its grave also! commitment is like ham and eggs. the chicken makes a contribution, the pig makes a commitment. | |||

Any institution that's corrupt and immoral deserves to go, and I'd imagine anyone that has been a victim of it's practices will be delighted it's finally got what it deserves. I have only one burning desire- let me stand next to your fire... | |||

So they'll nationalise it then. Easily done.

If it costs the murdochs one sleepless night then that works for me!
