Weeelllll....the British Sun is certainly no National Enquirer, but to call it 'pretty respectable' is rather generous. To many Brits (myself included) its mostly associated with celebrity gossip, salacious sex stories, right-wing nationalism, bigotry and of course, topless women on page 3. In British journalism terms, it's pretty much the gutter-press.
Of course, it is also (i believe) the most widely read British tabloid - so I guess my opiniosn are not shared by everyone!
