''Sunday Sport'' is a British tabloid newspaper, published by Sport Newspapers, which was established in 1986. It prints plainly ludicrous stories, such as ''"London Bus Found Frozen In Antarctic Ice"'', or ''"World War II Bomber Found On The Moon"''. Defenders of the paper pointed out that it was not intended to be taken seriously. Its controversial content also includes a high quotient of softcore female nudity and extensive advertising for sexual services. ==History== ''Sunday Sport'' was started in 1986. Its original publisher was David Sullivan. Advertising in the ''Sunday Sport'' was once the responsibility of Sullivan's protegee Karren Brady, who went on to become managing director of Birmingham City Football Club and vice-chairman of West Ham United. Sullivan sold the paper to Sport Newspapers but had to give them a £1.68m bailout in 2009.〔(Sunday Sport ) British Newspapers Online. Retrieved 11 June 2013.〕 The last editor was Nick Appleyard, appointed in September 2007. His predecessors included Michael Gabbert and Paul Carter. It had a sister daily title, ''Daily Sport''. It ceased publication and entered administration on 1 April 2011. However, it shortly returned to publication on 8 May, after it was reacquired by its original publisher David Sullivan for £50,000. Sullivan now publishes the paper three times a week as ''Midweek Sport'' (Wednesdays), ''Weekend Sport'' (Fridays) and ''Sunday Sport'', through his company Sunday Sport (2011) Limited.〔 It always has a salacious edge, mirroring ''The Sun''s ''Page 3'' girl, except spread across more of the pages. Following the departure of editor-in-chief Tony Livesey in August 2006, the paper moved towards more showbiz content spiced with sex, glamour and unique humour. Most issues came with a free gift, which could be free pints of lager, free downloads, free sex DVDs or even free tomato ketchup squeezy holders. The ''Daily Sport'' and ''Sunday Sport'' helped launch the careers of many ''Page 3'' models, including Linsey Dawn Mckenzie, Solange Hop, Cherry Dee, Zoe Parker, Josie Shaw and Dani Thompson. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sunday Sport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
