Phwaorrr you seen page 3 today?!..

On page 3 of The Telegraph today there's probably a juicy story about a vicar having an affair with the treasurer of the Parish Council in some Gloucestershire village, there often is. In the Courier they frequently  run fairly light hearted stories on page 3. So what's wrong with a bit of titilation? Nothing? Well how about The Sun's page 3 with Zoe from Brighton's "assets" on display for the whole family to gaze at? The paper has been at it since 1970 and today Dominic Mohan, editor of the good old Currant Bun, is being recalled to the Leveson inquiry to answer probing questions about the practice. He will have to answer questions like is putting gratuitous pictures of young women's naked breasts appropriate in a modern British society. Are they offensive and degrading to women? What do you all think of it. Inappropriate, should be banned from papers like the Sun, Star and Sport, or just a harmless bit of fun? Would it be alright to feature them on Tonbridge Blog on a daily basis for instance? Where would you draw the line?...

Ban them - bad and degrading for women especially in a family daily newspaper where youngster will be influenced that's how you portray women.
