Independent goes Red

Independent goes Red

The Independent on Tuesday welcomed Bono, of U2, as its guest editor and dedicated its front page for his "Red" campaign fighting AIDS in African nations.

The front page syas "No News Today". And there is another message - "Just 6,500 Africans died today as a result of a preventable, treatable disease".

Half its revenue from the Red paper is to be used for the campaign.

I like the Independent's challenging attitude.
