I'm no fan of the NYT's politics, but it is a "real" newspaper and I'm certain beyond a shadow of a doubt that its newsroom would always run such a story. Maybe it would be on page 46, but it would be run. The Sun is not a newspaper - it is the developer's tool to sell more property - and it can run whatever it wants. I just don't think anyone should call it a real newspaper.


I think you are correct. As long as one keeps that in mind and doesn't take the publication too seriously, it won't all short of expectations. I enjoy reading The Sun but for news I look elsewhere.
