Newspaper boycott

The Sun's coverage was dispicable. Lies, lies and more lies were spread out on front pages for all to see, compounding the misery which Merseyside, and the football world, was feeling following the traumatic events of the previous day.

Tabloid journalism was at its worst as the paper ran sickening coverage of the events and lost all their humanity for the sake of selling papers.

And despite changing times and changing people, most places in Liverpool still refuse to stock the Sun, and few Merseysiders buy it. And this fan, for one, thinks that the boycott should continue. A front page apology would, I presume, be little comfort for the families of the dead, but the fact that 16 years have now passed without any real apology reflects the true nature of this so-called 'news' paper.

And so as we remember the 96 who died, turn your back on the Sun, support the Hillsborough Families Support Group, and campaign for justice for those fans who died in the stands at the Leppings Lane End.
