— jock (@jock4twenty) June 10, 2014On the 12th and 13th of June 2014, to tie in with the beginning of the Football World Cup, a free issue of Rupert Murdoch agenda organ The Sun was distributed by the Royal Mail to 22 million homes in England. It was offensive, racist, jingoistic and apparently illegal:
A lot of people are very angry about receiving a free copy of The Sun , I've decided to treat it as a sociological experiment. #FreeSun
