Sun editor pledges to keep controversial topless Page Three The new editor of The Sun has said the newspaper will keep its topless Page Three pin-ups. David Dinsmore, who previously edited The Scottish Sun, took over at the News International title on Monday. In an interview on Wednesday with LBC radio's Nick Ferrari, Mr Dinsmore insisted he would not drop the popular feature, which has attracted criticism from feminist groups including the "No More Page Three" campaign. Mr Dinsmore, who is from Glasgow, was asked if Page Three was safe from any changes he might make at the UK's biggest-selling paper. He replied: "It is, it is. I can tell you that. He added that the recent rebranding of parent company News International to News UK was a "fresh start." Mr Dinsmore said the decision to start charging for access to the paper's website, which has been free, was because "we believe we have news worth paying for, content worth paying for." The 44-year-old was unveiled as the new editor of The Sun last week. Mr Dinsmore, prior to his appointment, was director of operations at News International. He served as interim managing editor of The Sun between December 2011 and October 2012 after over a year as general manager for News International in Scotland. He edited the Scottish edition of the UK's biggest-selling newspaper between February 2006 and September 2010. Prior to that, he was night editor of the tabloid for just over two years. The Sun had a circulation of 2,269,238 in May but its readership sits at around 7,000,000. The paper, along with other News International titles, was rocked by the phone-hacking scandal. After the demise of its sister paper the News of the World, The Sun began publishing a Sunday edition.
