A blog for former and current employees of the Toronto Sun and siblings to reflect on 49-plus years of life in a word factory, for better and for worse, for richer and for poorer.
We are the soul of a newspaper. Not just any newspaper. We are the soul of the Toronto Sun from back in the day when it was the tabloid everyone in Toronto talked about. We are the people who helped make it happen. Sadly, most of us are long gone from the Sun. Many are now deceased. But when we were all a part of the Sun, as it was, it was a vibrant, kick ass paper that captured the impossible dream.
LOL....reminds me of a recent headline in a Alberta Sun weekly....
