As GerK said, Richard Desmond is a hypocrite.
He has made his fortune from porn and celelbrity magazines, some of his porn mags are listed above, but he also owns OK magazine, which regularly publishes paparazzi photos of celebrities similar to the Middleton ones. Presumably as OK is published internationally it is a direct competitor of Closer and Berlusconi's other similar magazines.
He withdrew his newspapers (The Star and The Express) from the Independent Press Complaints Commission, the voluntary body that deals with complaints against the press in the UK, so he obviously doesn't believe that newspapers should be regulated by even a toothless organisation like the IPCC. The Star in the UK would have no issue publishing a similar photo of one of the Monaco royal family for example.
If he has an issue then the board of the company should look into sacking the editor, but closing the paper down for this is a joke.
But since the editor hasn't published anything different to other similar stories published in the past even sacking him seems disproportionate.
Seems to me that Richard Desmond has a problem with his Irish company not kow-towing to the British monarchy sufficiently. Someone should remind him that the Irish media has not had to do that for 90 years or so.

Richard Desmond is a hypocrite, but it was still in bad taste printing those photos.
It would be a shame if people lost their jobs for the actions of one Editor who would have made the final call.

If anyone who was not a "professional photographer" took photos of a girl who was not a "celebrity" while she was sunbathing topless on private property then that person would be done for at least harrassment, and possibly voyeurism, sexual harrasment, stalking etc.
France has a privacy law, it's pretty likely Closer will get found guilty of breaking that law, and they'll get fined a lot less than they have made from the photos. So the law is pretty useless.
Ireland doesn't have such a law, the editor of the Star obviously felt that publishing would increase circulation that day, he broke no Irish laws, and he was pretty much doing what he had probably done hundred of times before, taken some compromising celeb photos off the wires and stuck them in his paper to fill some space and attract a few punters.
If that has pissed the owners off then it should be the editor who pays, not the entire staff.
