Newspapers need more boobs, not less

Over recent years, the No More Page 3 campaign has gone from strength to strength, gaining support from everyone from women’s groups to MPs. They petition the Sun’s editors to remove the “bare boobs” from the newspaper, arguing that the presence of a naked glamour model on page 3 demeans and objectifies women. What’s more, they are winning. Public opinion is shifting and one title, the Irish edition of the Sun, has even relented, putting clothes on its previously naked models.
