The reason the Sun alone was singled out for such concern is largely that it is owned by Rupert Murdoch (whereas the similar Daily Star is not). But then taste in Britain has always been bound up with class – or, as the protesters say, “context”. No one calls for a ban on bare-breasted Kate Moss or Madonna, but instead applauds them for “being in control”. Protesters have not barracked Covent Garden or the Coliseum for “objectifying” women by depicting orgies on stage. They do not picket Lars von Trier’s films or the Chapman brothers’ galleries.
