Anger as pro-independence blogger blames Liverpool fans for Hillsborough disaster
By Brian McLaughlin - The Herald
A PROMINENT blogger has come under fire for blaming Liverpool fans for the Hillsborough disaster despite an inquest vindicating them.
Stuart Campbell, the popular blogger who runs the pro-Independence website Wings over Scotland, faced demands to apologise after he stood by his views that Liverpool supporters were partly to blame for the 1989 tragedy.
On Tuesday, jurors in the Hillsborough inquest concluded that the 96 Liverpool fans who died in the disaster were unlawfully killed.

Wings Over Scotland blogger Stuart Campbell blames Liverpool fans for Hillsborough tragedy
A CONTROVERSIAL pro-independence blogger came under fire yesterday over comments made about the disaster.
Stuart Campbell, who runs Wings Over Scotland, was previously criticised for claiming Liverpool fans were partly at fault over the deaths of the victims.
In 2012, the blogger insisted that “every single solitary person who died at Hillsborough was killed by Liverpool fans”.
But when asked on Twitter about the verdict yesterday, he said: “My thoughts are that anyone trolling for a reaction on it can go and get f***ed.”
Asked if his views had changed since 2012, he said: “No” and vowed to block those “trolling” him.
