NY Post is sort of like a Murdoch Mail, I'd say, though not as smug. As a Murdoch tabloid people here would usually compare it to the Sun, but it's not quite as downmarket.

Fucking appalling rag - I got offered a free subscription to it on my first day in my new apartment in the States, and I'd never heard of it, so I thought "free paper, okay, go on then", only to find that it was basically Arabs Are Terrorists Daily, at least at that point. If they'd not fucked up anyway and stopped delivering it, I would have cancelled.

NB Sun front cover today for anyone who's not seen it:

Yeah, they're organising a phone campaign to support Tony Blair.

How about a phone campaign to tell the editor not to abuse her spouse?

Blair faces showdown vote on terrorism law
Met Chief Steps Up Terror Warning
Australia PM reassures Muslims on anti-terror laws
Police Thwart Australia Terror Attack
Blair lobbies to win crucial terrorism vote

These are the headlines from yahoo news is this set up to give you the feel that blairs terror laws would be a good idea? seems suggestive of that to me.
