'The Times' mentions Hillsborough on front cover of second edition - but is it enough?
The victims of the Hillsborough tragedy finally have justice, but there is still some cause for anger.
Families of the victims got the closure they deserved when it was ruled that the 96 who died at the 1989 FA Cup semi-final were killed unlawfully.
Most national papers handled the news tactfully, carrying an announcement of the verdict on their front pages, but the two notable exceptions were The Sun and The Times.
Former Liverpool midfielder Jason McAteer has hit out at the former for giving out free newspapers at Manchester Airport on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, The Times has since amended its front page to include coverage of the Hillsborough story, but many believe it's too little too late.
Only including a front-page mention in the second edition wasn't enough, for many.
It is curious how The Times only went for Hillsborough on the front page for the second edition. Mutiny on the news/sports desk?

And even the new version isn't enough for a lot of people.
I see the Times has included Hillsborough on its skyline – beside the handbags – in its second edition.

The Times arsehole has fallen out here. Second edition has a token image of the families celebrating. No accompanying editorial.

And, perhaps understandably, people remain dumbfounded by the approach to the first edition.
The Times second edition manages to mention the Hillsborough verdict on the front page
The power of embarrassment.

So a story that broke at 11am the previous day could only make the second edition of The Times. Ridiculous.
