Why the Sun might dump Brown
The Sun has revealed, through spokesman Irwin Stelzer, one of Rupert Murdoch's top advisers that they may be dropping their support for Brown and New Labour for Cameron after almost a decade of support for Blair.
The pivotal issue of joining the EU, without holding a referendum has annoyed Murdoch who has strong views on this matter. There is also general public despair held over Browns decision to cancel the speculated snap poll which Murdoch isn't too happy about either.
Considering both conferances -Labour and Conservative, Stelzer reveals that Cameron may just deserve another look.
This article is important because it successfully highlights one of many things. The first is that it illuminates the very power Murdoch holds, -is there a link between Browns decision to call off the election and Murdoch's decision to print an EU article against his election mandate? Secondly, this just goes to show how politics affects the media, -both on a interior and exterior level.
