SHUT DOWN THE SUN NEWSPAPER

Petition Details

They lied and haven't sufficiently apologised. Lets close down this rag for good.

Additional Information

On the 15th of April 1989 the horrific Hillsborough tragedy happened in which 96 football fans died. This "newspaper" wrote damning headlines and damaging reports of events, reports that were beyond hard hitting, verging on vendetta driven. The editor Calvin Mckenzie and other journalists took this action to lie and fabricate stories to increase their sales, stories which were completely unfounded were published and families of victims endured pointless pain.
