I've have a look at the book Stick It Up Your Punter: The Rise And Fall Of The Sun which as I recall covers the paper's hounding of Russell Harty over his sexuality in some depth. Actually, the attitude of the tabloid press toward him ought to be mentioned in the article, they really turned on him toward the end of his life and the book can be taken as a reliable source. -88.109.17.122 20:44, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
