THOSE TIRELESS arbiters of good taste and moral guardians of family values at The Sun have revealed shocking new findings that people look at porn on the Web.

In what the Currant Bun describes as a 'far-reaching' survey, agony granny Deidre has 'discovered' that 'huge numbers of people are using the net to cheat on partners and Internet porn is destroying their sex lives.'

Ten per cent of the 4,000 people surveyed claimed they'd had sex with 11 or more people they'd met on the Internet. But being a bastion of moral rectitude, the paper naturally fails to point out if they were in the same room at the time or were merely engaged in some one-handed surfing.

Eighty per cent of respondents admitted to looking at Web porn, which suggests to us that the other 20 per cent are lying.

The Sun's agony aunt expresses her fear that the Internet and mobile phones are leading to runaway promiscuity and general naughtiness.

"Sex education these days needs to include the rules for safe sex on the Internet – and tactics to help the addicted wean themselves off quick online thrills and move on to real-life, caring relationships," admonishes a shocked Deidre Sanders.

The Sun's sense of shock and outrage is amply illustrated by its choice of illustration for the story - a topless Page Three Stunna pretending to use a laptop.
