From the above piece you will see a compelling argument that Murdochs flagship paper could come out in support of UKIP. Murdoch likes to back winners as it helps sell newspapers if he can be seen to be with what the people are feeling then all the better for his share price.
No one is feeling the love for the Tories and Murdoch I feel does not like RED ED so it leaves something that the masses are talking and thinking about which is change. If the Sun support UKIP then that would be a big change and would that act as a domino effect so that papers like the Daily Mail might follow suit? I think UKIP have more affinity with Mail readers than the Tories have these days.
This will all be very interesting.
Watch this space as they would say.

ReplyDeleteI don't think The Sun's political editor, Tom Newton Dunn, likes them. That article is over a year old and their racist overtones in the EU elections worried a lot of the mainstream press
