Tim Ireland at Bloggerheads presents an illustrated article about the connection between the topless cuties who populate Page 3 of The Sun and owner Rupert Murdoch’s archconservative politics: “The central issue is the exploitation of these women – and The Sun’s readership – in a way that not even Orwell could have imagined in his wettest dream.” (We’d like to say that we prefer our nudity without politics of any sort … but then again, who are we kidding?)
