Ever since 1989 when The Sun (The Scum) ran an inaccurate story in the aftermath of the Hillsborough disaster, in which 96 Liverpool fans lost their lives, concerning the conduct of Reds fans involved in the tragedy the newspaper has been the subject of an ongoing boycott by many people in the city. Not only did the headlining article called 'The Truth' outline false and derogatory comments concerning fans in and around the Leppings Lane End where the tragic scenes unfolded, but the subsequent failure of The Sun (The Scum) to issue an apology now means the newspaper is largely unwelcome throughout Merseyside, which has cost the newspaper approximately £125 million. However this did not deter local radio station Juice FM from trying to cash in on selling advertising space to The Sun (The Scum), which caused great anger and concern amongst listeners. When questioned on this Juice FM used the phoney excuse of “Our advertising is arranged on a national basis and as our ad-campaign manager has been on holiday, this somehow slipped through the net” - Bullshit!

Boycott The Sun (The Scum) and Juice FM
