Does the Sun newspaper speak for the nation?
In typical tabloid fashion, the Sun asked yesterday, how dare the Germans (I think they mean Bild newspaper, not a whole nation) attack Becks' birds accompanied by a photograph of the Beaut and Das Boot. This question seems rather ironic to me, since the Sun delivered a 7500 square foot beach towel to a Berlin football stadium last week, the thing is clearly Germans and English tabloid writers are cut from the same cloth, or should I say beach towel.

I would guess that Germanys' Bild, and the Sun both indulge in simplistic Nationalistic stereotypes irrespective of the consequences.
