The Sun

Why Kelvin MacKenzie is wrong about the Sun

From our UK edition

It is complete nonsense to say that the word 'woke' has been banned from the Sun. No such conversations have taken place — with Ally Ross or anyone on the paper. We cover 'woke' stories on the front page regularly, including today, and we use the word throughout the paper and in leader columns. There is also no agreement with ITV to only write positive stories about their celebrities, nor was there any meeting with Carolyn McCall, CEO of ITV, to discuss this or to discuss Phillip Schofield coming out. There are many other factual errors in this piece, and outdated assumptions about the Sun's readership and editorial position. The Sun reaches over 38 million readers each month, making it the most-read UK newsbrand.
