Rupert Murdoch is unhappy about the “fuss and publicity” over the fate of the Sun’s Page 3, as this tweet shows.
Much fuss and publicity in UK as horrible elites yak on about Page 3. Worry not, The Sun will always have great looking women - and men!

I like that line about “horrible elites”. I imagine that’s a reference to the Guardian (I don’t think I constitute an elite myself) and the BBC. But what of Sky News? Is that an elite?
Surely he cannot mean the No More Page 3 campaigners either. They are the very opposite of an elite.
Anyway, it’s a relief to know that the Sun “will always have great looking women - and men”, but what about those asterisks?
In case you missed it, Marina Hyde’s riff on the Sun’s use of t*ts was a real g*m.
