Whilst the likes of Kavanagh and MacKenzie only make the odd contribution these days there must be at least a dozen journalists knocking out political stories in a paper where political articles are pretty thin on the ground. <br /><br />I can't imagine many Sun readers rush out in a morning to buy a paper to read the latest brain farts from Harry Cole or Tom Newton Dumb so what really is the point of 'The Sun's political output other than just propagating the Murdoch line to an ever decreasing readership.

Not when they can get their fill of racial tension-raisers, TV listings, cute animal funnies and porn in the terabytes, and all of it for free elsewhere. It's not the first time he's messed up though. There was buying MySpace just before Facebook went big, and the Times paywall. Not to mention Louise Mensch's new version of Twitter she tried to launch.

It can't come soon enough too for the <i>Heil online</i> gang and others of the same political hue.<br /><br />That kind of loony propaganda can never disappear completely of course. The corner shop paranoid mentality has to have a handy bunker somewhere.<br /><br />Meantime, the beauty of press media is this: If you want to know what those crackpots are mithering up lately all you have to do is visit the local supermarket, go to the "news"paper section, scan through their version of <i>Der Sturmer</i> or <i>Volkischer Beobachter</i> (shouldn't take more than a few minutes), then put it back on the shelf. Hey presto, it stays unsold and you get to know what their latest loony diatribe is. And Murdoch and Rothermere make no profit out of you.<br /><br />And if you feel it necessary to visit their websites, just turn on your adblocker. Then the click bait doesn't work either.<br /><br />Deprive them of advertising dosh and profits and that should see them disappear up each other's anal canal.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-84548128373203264962016-01-22T11:43:48.261+00:002016-01-22T11:43:48.261+00:00They literally can't give their online content...They literally can't give their online content away - another demonstration of all-conquering Murdoch's digital Achilles heel.
