The Hillsborough disaster happened in April 1989 at the beginning of a FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest, at the neutral venue of Sheffield. Essentially, the ground was full with many fans outside, unable to get in when the game started. For whatever reason, police opened another entrance and fans surged in. At that time, grounds required fencing to stop supporters getting onto the pitch, and in the melee 96 Liverpool fans were killed - crushed against the fences. The aftermath of this tragedy was that fencing was abolished and all-seater stadia introduced at Premiership and Championship grounds.

On the 19th of April 1989 they printed a story with the following headline: "The Truth. Some fans picked pockets of victims Some fans urinated on the brave cops Some fans beat up PC giving kiss of life." The story was all lies. Many of the people of Liverpool stopped buying The Sun after that and still do not buy it. Many will never buy it again.
