So they're just removing the option of people having a choice whether or not to buy the paper.
There will be plenty of people in Liverpool who have no affiliation whatsoever with the club or the events of 1988, who buy the paper. But stupidity wins...
I don't like the Sun as much as the next bloke, but can we seriously start getting over Hillsborough already? Christ.

I'm not sure they should.
The Sun's misreporting was beyond disgusting and it continues to this day. Their agenda over facts has very real consequences.
Read the case of Chris Jefferies and how The Sun tried to portray him as a pervert and a freak to sell papers.
Read Fake Sheikhs and Royal Trappings showing how The Sun's malicious reporting has resulted in people committing suicide and courts wasting time with crimes their reporters have invented.
Anyone buying the Sun or reading it online is funding a very evil corporation and the fact someone is standing up to them is a good thing.
The Sun and News International generally continue to be very snidey about Hillsborough as well.
When the verdict was announced recently I'm not sure if the Sun even ran the story, and the Times did but only in the second edition that day (the first edition goes to Liverpool apparently).
Fair play to Liverpool I say.
With all due respect, how long will this keep going for, don't the victims families need closure?
Laying the blame for what was an accident waiting to happen on 1 cop - Duckenfield alone is on the hook for 95 manslaughter charges - is clearly iniquitous. It makes an ass of the law, which demands that justice is evenly applied and proportional. It's prima facie absurd to think 1 person is responsible, and if you can only charge 1 person, you probably shouldn't charge anyone.
The obstruction cases are far stronger, and much more rational.
