The Sun's Historical Front Pages

I don't like The Sun but this is very cool:

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage..._page/history/

A collection of what their front pages would have been throughout history. It even has a sense of self-deprecation, it has a front page calling the first attempt at a vaccination a 'evil experiment' by a 'mad doctor'.

Re: The Sun's Historical Front Pages

It's more than that ... It looks as if there's a proper explanation of each historical event alongside the mocked-up front page. Whodathunkit .... Your super soaraway Sun turns history teacher.

Re: The Sun's Historical Front Pages

There is only one place for the Sun newspaper and that is in the bin.

I bet they are not stupid enough to post any of their Hillsborough lies.

Re: The Sun's Historical Front Pages

Its a great idea and they appear to have actually done something good for a change.

I kind of doubt it somehow as even that crowd are not that stupid as it is a notorious front page not a classic.

Not that I would ever look at such a rag as you would feel dirty touching it and could not even be used as toilet paper as you would feel dirty after use.

Agree with all that you have said in regards to this and I am the same.
