Reaction to NotW closure

Reaction is flooding in after James Murdoch, chairman of News International, announced the closure of the News of the World newspaper. 

The tabloid's owners have decided that the phone-hacking scandal and surrounding publicity is overwhelming the brand and have made the brutal move which means that Sunday's edition will be the last. 

Some are very cynical, speculating that it is a rebranding exercise with the becoming a seven-day title. 

Further announcements will be forthcoming following the shocking revelations about the conduct of journalists at the paper.
