A Day's Sport

I set this shot up to make some sort of a statement about tabloid newspapers. I took one particular issue of the "Daily Sport" and made a collage of the items contained in it to show how our values are being assaulted.

The reaction to this image by its viewers was extraordinary. One Club judge thought it was "humorous". Most people felt a bit offended by the picture. One person was sufficiently offended to poke needles through the photo when it was hung on public display in an exhibition.
And yet the "Daily Sport" is openly on sale every day of the week!
