Agreed.

Massive for them to shut down what I assume was the most popular Sunday newspaper though?

Don't think I've ever heard of this happening to a paper before. Glad to be honest. They are corrupt as fuck!
They aren't ending out of decency though. It's because they can't continue to run after all the companies have ceased to be associated with them.

Exactly what I was thinking - does that mean the Sun will just become the Sunday Sun on Sundays, or will it disappear too?

Tis kinda sad in way a way that a paper thats been running so long is going.

This sundays issue will most likely be the highest selling one to date i reckon. Ill go buy it to see what they put in it, see if they just take the piss etc

It's place will clearly be taken by The Sun, there is no way News International will just give that kind of circulation away.

I did think earlier this week that NOTW was fucked when it came out about families of murder victims having their phones hacked but thought it would be down to poor circulation/loss of advertising rather than this immediate closure. This is just a way for News to try and put the scandal to bed and keep the bad publicity away from it's other businesses.

Token gesture, the bottom feeders are still in the high powered positions and still ready and willing to flog their granny for a quick buck.
