Granted the other papers didn't, perhaps out of respect, perhaps they weren't briefed by the same Police source but why would you disbelieve an official (and at the time) what was believed to be a credible source?
I'm no fan of the Sun but anyone that reads a newspaper (or history/reference book for that matter) without questioning or separating what is fact, opinion or heresay is a fucking idiot.
Damanding the Sun be shut down won't change this.
