I made a tweet – it was re-tweeted 87 times, a record for me. Obviously I got some replies.
@tonycollinet @NoMorePage3 @TheSunNewspaper attitude? you're treating them as objects and not allowing freedom of press? poor attitude.

1 – Pointing out that women are being objectified, is not objectifying women.
2 – And this is important:
Freedom of the press is not important because tits. Press freedom is vital in a well functioning democracy so that the press can hold the rich and powerful and those in authority – like the government and police – to account for their actions. This can help moderate the worst excesses of those powerful people, and protect the rest of us from those excesses.
The arsewipe of a rag that The Sun “newspaper” is, is an unfortunate consequence of press freedom, not a reason for it.
