You may disagree with the publication of topless model photos in Page 3 of The Sun, but they always had a couple of good points.

Page 3 returns… after a week: Winking topless woman appears in The Sun under 'clarifications and corrections' headline

A segment in The Sun was believed to have been dropped after 44 years
Newspaper had not published topless glamour model photos since Friday
But feature returned today under heading 'Clarifications and Corrections'
Paper 'apologises' and publishes photo of 'Nicole, 22, from Bournemouth'
No To Page 3 campaign group spokesman admits 'fight might be back on'

Baring her breasts and winking at the camera, ‘Nicole from Bournemouth’ today brought to an end speculation that Page 3 had been killed off.

It had been widely thought the controversial segment in The Sun newspaper had been dropped after 44 years - and Government ministers welcomed the move.

The newspaper had not published pictures of topless glamour models since last Friday, instead advising readers the pictures would be available on its website.

But under the headline ‘Clarifications and Corrections’ on page three today, the paper published a topless photograph of the 22-year-old model.

It stated: ‘Further to recent reports in all other media outlets, we would like to clarify that this is Page 3 and this is a picture of Nicole, 22, from Bournemouth.

They now feature young women wearing a little; particularly lingerie.
And very nice they look, too.

It's still a crap newspaper !
 
They better not show a topless woman of middle eastern descent of they might all get killed by cowards.

They have in the past. The woman became the verbal target of mindless idiots.

PS But the stopping and restarting of Page 3 tits might have been a circulation stunt.

Oh, what an innovative idea.
I wonder why they did not think of that before. . .

For our American cousins I should point out that The Sun is the tops selling "news"paper owned by Rupert Murdoch, Yes the same man who owns Fox news. The man is famous for never letting the truth get in the way of a good story. So we have to ask was this a publicity stunt?
Possibly since one of the papers trumpeting the end of Page 3 was none other than The Times, owned by Rupert Murdoch.

Of course this was all going on at the same time as Fox news became a laughing stock over here, so perhaps it was just a smokescreen to take some attention away from Fox.

For a week The Sun was the news instead of just printing it.
My personal opinion is that Murdoch was just testing the water. He has already lost the business of those who only bought the paper for the boobs, They've all moved over to The Sport. He wanted to know how much it would affect circulation so he let people think things had changed.

Incidentally back in the 80s The Sun got into hot water for publishing a topless photo of a 15yr old schoolgirl. Oh they're very big on principles at The Sun.

My own viewpoint is that I love to see pictures of attractive women, clothed or unclothed. I just don't see it has any place in a newspaper. Since when is a girl getting her tits out for money, news.

I think I saw that picture. The model was wearing head gear and covering her face.
The rest of her, however, was stark naked (and she was very pretty).
