I have not read the publication.

I feel sympathy for those out of a job who were solely working in the production side of the newspaper.

I dont read it, and think that the whole thing is despicable.
The people who do/did read this paper cannnot be totally blameless as their desire for reading this scandal is the reason reporters have gone to this le vel to get the info.

Could some bright spark on here come up with a proper title for this debacle - something ending in 'gate'?

Yes there is Dermot and a very good newspaper too!

The North East's Sunday Sun has a good reputation........not to be confused with Murdoch's (B)lags.....

There is a 'Sunday Sun' already in the North-East.

It is not really closing down,it is just being re-named. The Sunday Sun or whatever it is going to be called will be the News of the World.

I bet in a year's time we will all have forgotten about the supposed 'things to come'. Clever tactics on Mrs Brooks' part to divert from the present.

Which Newspaper will you use now for the bottom of the cat litter tray?

Vera2010

Vera2010 Report 8 Jul 2011 18:06

It is alleged that the phone hacking was in the past. Still a terrible thing to do. News of the World not a paper I would read although I do remember reading it for the juicy bits many years ago and my uncle taking it off me.

However enough of that. What about these workers. Where are the Unions in all this. How on earth can, what appears to be 3 people, make the decision to close down a best selling newspaper, putting hundreds of people out of work. It wouldn't have happened in SOGAT days.
