Why are they biased , Murdoch owns 39% of BSKYB not all of it , you would have a valued argument had he already took the further 61%. The NOTW are getting a rough ride on Sky news as well.

Can I remind members that although this is a highly motive subject this site is family friendly hence we do not accept any swearing even when hidden by the word censor.

Why are they biased (what a daft question?) All channels are biased I'm one way or another? I just hate and deplore anything that has the NI stamp of approval. This is just my opinion and it has been made stronger now than in 1989, that is why I have now cancelled SKY Sport and Movies with immediate effect.

Look for the Sunday Sun to go nationwide.

NotW is being sacrificed on the altar of News International completing the take over of BSkyB.

Yes l agree in that Murdoch l suspect has a plan B and as you say l would not be surprised if a Sunday Sun launches after this has died down.

Apparently the staff at The Sun have been told to prepare for a 7 day run. The Sun will be the same from Monday to Sunday.

I often wonder how different the country would be if there were no tabloids, or the most popular papers, were ones like the Guardian or the times. :P

Sky sources indicate that there is MASS anger aimed at Rebekah Brooks in the NoTW newsroom at the moment.
