 Sir Alan Sugar is to sue the Sun newspaper over the printing of a false front page story in January this year, 'Terror Target Sugar', which claimed that British Jews were being singled out for attack by Muslims over events in Gaza. He has issued a writ against News Group Newspapers and the paper’s editor, Rebekah Wade.

Bloggerheads revealed that the story had been planted by the ‘anti - terrorism expert’ cited in the article, Glen Jenvey, who posed as ‘Abu Islam’ on Ummah.com and posted the comment that formed the basis of the article. Sir Alan was among those the Sun claimed was being targeted by Muslims.

The Sun splashed the fabricated story on its front page and has since removed it from its website. The matter is under investigation from the Press Complaints Commission.

Like the old saying, 'money talks & bulls**t walks!'

If capitalism empowers the entrepreneur, through the accumulation of wealth, then democracy functions to empower the Individual, through listening to his/her Voice!

In any event, the Sun still proudly epitomises British Tabloids in that 'todays news is tomorrows fish & chip paper!'
