No disrespect but please do not post in relation to Hillsborough, when you are posting such inaccuracies. Hundreds if not thousands of people complained with respect to footage and press coverage of Hillsborough. There are 96 recorded deaths in relation to the Hillsborough disaster, but many others died as a result of Hillsborough as they found it impossible to cope both with the disaster itself and the subsequent media coverage and were driven to suicide.
Indeed there were many court cases where relatives largely unsuccessfully tried to recover in relation to the awful images they witnessed in the media. This injustice was further heightened when they saw numerous police officers being signed off and allowed to retire on ill health grounds with full pensions, when many families and relatives of the victims received nothing as their loss was deemed to be too remote.
The relatives have been fantastic in their dedication and commitment, and they have been well supported by thousands of other people committed to allowing the general public to see the real truth that they have known for 24 years, not the police and media cover up version.

With respect, I disagree with your view that media coverage of Hillsborough affected the outcome of the inquest verdicts, since my own view is that such coverage arguably worked in favour of the latest outcome to quash the 96 inquest verdicts, I personally do not care if you are a police officer, a solicitor, a barrister, a judge, a polititian, the Home Secretary, the lord chief justice, the DPP, the queen of England, or just an ordinary person from the street, I can say what I believe to be true on my own forum, providing I believe it to be true, it doesn't matter to me what you think about what I think, you have your views and I have mine, if you can't accept that, then your in the wrong place pal, you need to be visiting other sites where people might be frightened to speak thier minds. For your information, matey, I believe there are very strong similarities to Hillsborough and the Bamber case, since in both instances, police and other agencies of the State, sought to cover up the truth...
