German tabloid drops front page topless photo after 28 years

After featuring bare-breasted women on its cover for 28 years, Germany’s largest-selling newspaper, the tabloid Bild, is publishing its last front-page topless model today in honor of International Women’s Day.

Bild says the move is “perhaps a small step from women’s point of view — but it’s a big step for Bild and all men in Germany.”

The newspaper says its male staff made the decision Thursday, when it gave all female employees the day off to mark women’s day.
