"The Truth"

The day after yet another of its staff has been sent to prison, this time under circumstances that could bankrupt the entire paper, The Sun is instead having a little tantrum about something else.

Specifically, it is doing so about the fact that far more people now think that its picture was of an interpreter than ever saw it when it was published as an image of a purportedly bogus teenage refugee.

Not for the first time, "The Sun lied" is now the story. And these days, it is universally believed as a statement of the obvious.

The shadow of Hillsborough is very long indeed.

Now, vote for Gary Lineker for Best Presenter at the National Television Awards. Sponsored by The Sun.
