Wow, Did Mumsnet just close a newspaper?

[LemonDifficult]

Impressive.

(But what will I read with a hangover on a Sunday?)

Mumsnet? Er,no!!!

no fgs

How did MN do it?

?????

What the hell did MN have to do with it?

Haha! As much as I would like us to take the credit I think there were more people than us who made it fold. It isn't over yet though, that editor (Rachel Brooks) is still hanging on by the skin of her teeth and I don't for one minute think only NoW did the shady stuff. Nope, I think more is to come and I am sticking to my resolve to not buy the Times.

Dear lord, no, in a word.

Oh fgs there are other people with opinions in the world you know, other than on here!

What makes you think that op?

i have read that News international registered the website "sunonsunday' several days ago. It is all very convenient.

The Murdochs have sacrificed the NOW to save Rebekah Brooks? Begs the question how much dirt does she have on them that they're willing to do this?

PMSL!

or broaden your horizons,fgs

I'm not sure it is just to do with RB and more to do with the whole NI brand - e.g. the boycott of NOTW could have spread to The Sun which would have been catastophic.

They will definitely relaunch a Sunday Sun - will be interesting to see how long they wait before they do.

Haha!

It's been everywhere!! Dh knew about this story over a year ago!

er everyone did since 2005

See this is the result of reading NoW. You read some stuff on MN about it, then NoW folds...join the dots, easy innit?

Enjoy the SunonSunday when it hits the shelves.

No.

Neither did Twitter.

Its a cost cutting excersize rolled into a PR arse covering mission.

The Sun will spread across 7 days.

Yes SunonSunday will be next

Jesus, do people actually believe in the influence of Mumsnet?

I blame the mumsnet election it's created delusions of grandeur.

Yes, mayorquimby, alarmingly, they do. Our leader, the sainted Justine is going on Newsnight tonight, to represent the masses. Rather than just a self selecting bunch of middle class women with too much time to waste

I'm quite enjoying the idea that Murdoch, haughtily ignoring an entire House of Commons Debate, a plummeting share price and threats to boycott one of his newspapers from all quarters of society.... stumbles across Mumsnet, reads a thread or two, turns pale and reaches for the telephone....

no.
