Just when you think that The Sun is as low as possible for a national newspaper it manages to sink even lower:
The Sun grabs Natasha Richardson as a sponsored link
Yes, The Sun went and purchased a sponsored link, from Google, with Natasha Richardson's name as it's keyword. A woman who died an unfortunate death, from a freak accident less than twenty four hours earlier. This after recent online outrage over a cover story that bashed survivors of Dunblane for growing up, going out drinking and having sex legally. Apparently, The Sunday Express feels that the survivors of Dunblane should have joined a monastery or a convent and dedicated their lives to doing nothing. However, had they done that they probably would have written a story in which they would state how the lives of these young people had been so shattered by the events of the tragic day that they are too scared to go outside in "Broken Britain". And on a side note, what a bogus, bullshit, made up term that is. But that is the national tabloids in a nutshell. They will spin any small story as much as they can in order to wind up the general populous and try to start a campaign about it in the hope people will keep buying their papers to see what the latest is.
I would have claimed that The Sun should have learned from the time when The Guardian made the stupid decision to buy Madeline as a sponsored link key word. That, however, would indicated that the people running The Sun are capable from learning or read anything outside of the Murdoch bubble. No doubt they have their fingers on the trigger of buy up Jade Goody's name the moment she dies.
