The Sun (newspaper) Encyclopedia Article @ AlienArtifacts.com (Alien Artifacts) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) |
 | | The Sun is a tabloid daily newspaper published in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland with the highest circulation of any daily English-language newspaper in the world, standing at 3,154,881 copies daily in early 2006 [1], (compared to USA Today, the best-selling US newspaper at 2,281,831 [2]). |
 | | The Sun is known in Cockney rhyming slang as The Currant Bun [3]. |
 | | The Sun's ultra-patriotism has, however, outgrown the racism some claim it came close to embracing in the 1970s and 1980s â” the nadir was its coverage of the Broadwater Farm riot of 1985 â” perhaps because Murdoch and his editors have realised that it needs to appeal to ethnic minority readers to sell its paper. |
