Do you actually take any notice of the news or are your posts pure guesswork.

It seems things are not going as well for the Sun on Sunday as they had hoped.
Quote:
The Sun's Sunday edition suffered a surprise slump on its fourth weekend, losing more than 300,000 in sales, leaving the circulation of Rupert Murdoch's new weekend tabloid hovering at just over 2.3m.
Industry estimates indicate that the title was down by about 12% on the previous week's sales of 2.7m – and down more than a quarter from its high-profile 3.22m debut a month ago

Of course it is best placed to report on a massive sales slump.

With a paltry weekday circulation of 216K this year, down from 280K last year and no Sunday presence it's just sour grapes. Of course the SOS is not going to maintain the flush of interst from the first edition, the true test will if it is here a year hence and the figures then.
Wiki circulaton figures

Of course they are.It's the paper that revealed all the scandal of phone hacking,blagging,computer hacking, and corruption of our police force and politicians.They have every right to put NI under the microscope for using less than savoury methods not to investigate true newsworthy causes but to chase after bimbos like Jorden Price and stupid footballers caught with their pants down and the relatives and family of murdered children.
NI are associated with scum and that's a legitimate interest of any good journalist and indeed should be of any inferior journalist.

I was told by a friend who did buy the paper last week that he found it to be a boring paper with no get up and go compared with the news of the screws

It will not be long before they hack a phone or 2 to try and stop the slump
