# Holy fuck!
That's huge news!
And rather wonderful too.

Or do you think it's just a trick to make people buy the last ever issue as a collector's item. Then the following week he'll announce that actually they won't be closing after all...

Edit: Oh I see last week's was the final issue. Hooray!
Edit edit: Oh I see that next week's will be the final issue.

# 1 issue left according to their statement
"News International has announced that it is closing the News of the World - Sunday 10 July 2011 will be it's last ever edition."

So yes, this sundays will be completely bought out by e-bay types and will likely reappear in daytime tv bargain hunt 2035 by saddo's wearing space helmets looking for a fiscal reward for doing fuck all apart from sitting on their space backsides in the future.
