Talk: Herald Sun
From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.
I have removed the reference to the newspaper's supposed nickname, which is not a true nickname; if a handful of smart alecs decide to call something by an insulting name, that doesn't make it a nickname, and there's no reason for the wikipedia to join in the chorus. I had never heard that supposed nickname for the paper before I read it in the wikipedia, and ditto the story that the voters threw out the Kirner govt because the Herald Sun told them to. I first heard of that on the wikipedia too, and it's total nonsense; even if it were true (and it isn't), it would belong, not on the Herald Sun page, but on the why-Joan-Kirner-lost-government page, where the 'other' reasons -- the loss of the State Bank, the VEDC collapse, the Tricontinental collapse, the National Safety Council shemozzle, Joan's lack of charisma -- could be appropriately discussed. -- User:Jake B
The Herald Sun doesn't have a hyphen in its title and this article should be renamed accordingly. Adam 04:15, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
It's the Herald Sun on its masthead, too, not The Herald Sun -- User:Jake B

were the words "news pictorial" ever part of The Suns official name? The Hearald Sun has the words "news pictorial" under its header too. Xtra 00:17, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
