rmer editor of The Sun newspaper Kelvin McKenzie insists he did not lie about what happened at Hillsborough.
The infamous 'The Truth' article angered fans and sparked a boycott of the paper that still continues today. At the time The Sun wrongly accused Liverpool fans of being directly responsible for the tragedy in which 96 people died.
In a recent interview, McKenzie claimed he had done no wrong. He said: "When I published those stories, they were not lies.
"But I don't really think of it all in the way you suggest. They were great stories that later turned out to be untrue - and that is different.
"What am I supposed to feel ashamed about?"
Phil Hammond, chairman of the Hillsborough Family Support Group, today dismissed McKenzie's statement.
He told the Echo: "I can't believe that even after all these years, there is no remorse or regret for the hurt he caused.
"He can't hold his hands up and say 'we got it wrong.'But then, that is the man all over.
"He should tell the people of Merseyside where he got the story from and whohis sources were. We have a right to know."
