Should sport be on the front page of the newspaper?

Do you think sport should be on page one of the newspaper? I personally want to scream every day when I see it there. Sport is a recreational passtime. It is not news, it is not life or death and it does not affect all readers, so why oh why do these News Limited newspapers have this affinity with sport? I suppose it has something to do with the fact that Rupert Murduch owns a number of the sporting teams in Australia.
I guess the sad reality is that ever since Pulitzer (US) and Northcliffe (UK), newspapers have resorted to sensationalised trash in order to attract readers. I, for one, do not think sport attracts readers, and it should be kept at the back of the newspaper where it belongs.
Do you agree? Or do you die hard sports fans beg to differ and think the papers is all the more appealing with the Broncos or whoever on the front page?
