Think the Daily Mirror also got into trouble for its anti-German front cover during Euro 96.
Think the headline was something like, "For you Fritz, Ze War is Over"
But of course it wasn't, cos Gareth Southagte fucked his penalty kick and the Germans went on to win the tournament.

Re: 40 yrs of the sun newspaper
And we had those terrible TV images of Baddiel and SKinner in the crowd looking so utterly gutted.
Brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it.
The Sun is a filthy right-wing rag aiming to be laddish and populist (the ungrammatical "It woz the Sun wot won it" beign a good example"). So long as people read the headlines of The Scum and Der Mail and the likes, and believe every word without checking, this country is in trouble.
Sun: "Geri Halliwell Ate My Hamster"
Mail: "Immigrants Ate Diana Memorial: House Prices Plummet."

Re: 40 yrs of the sun newspaper
Agreed. I despise the fucking Sun with a passion. None more than Richard Littleprick.
I may be the only person in the country who is disappointed in the direction The Mirror has taken since the departure of Piers Morgan, one of the very few tabloid journalists I would piss on if on fire. Another being Brian Reade. It is also now going down the same chavvy route of tits, 'celebs' and 'gossip.'
As for the Mail, I truly believe prolonged exposure can cause premature senility.
But you would expect all this from a Moore-believing, Bush-baiting, Morrissey-loving 'trendy' like myself, yeah?

Re: 40 yrs of the sun newspaper
Piers Morgan's 'serious' Mirror may have been a 'better' paper but sales dropped like a stone.
It's no wonder they put the 'celebs' back on the front pages. People would rather read about who's shagging who in Big Brother rather than how many civillians are being killed in Iraq.

Re: 40 yrs of the sun newspaper
It's clear that most people are stupid and have their head in the sand.
Though it saddens me to say it, the great British public have now got the government and society they deserve.

Re: 40 yrs of the sun newspaper
I hate The Sun and all it stands for
and The Mirror
and The Star
but most of all I hate the pious Mail and Express.
The Sport. Much maligned, but at least due to this some of their columnists actually speak the truth about things instead of bullshitting.
