Let's hope it isn't representitive as I suspect Rupert will be delighted with sales of 13%...

What would be really good is if The Sun, Daily Mail and Express all shut down!

It's not weird at all really - the Sunday Sun is a regional title, published by the Newcastle Chronicle and Journal Ltd, which is part of Trinity Mirror ... the key word being 'Trinity', as it was Trinity plc, a major publisher of regional and local newspapers, that bought the Mirror, not the other way round. The Sunday Sun was around for a very long time before its parent company bought the Mirror.
I did my journo training at the training centre based at the offices of the Chronicle/Journal/Sunday Sun.

Re: Will you buy The Sun on Sunday?
Virgin Media have snapped up advertising space in the first edition of the Sun on Sunday :
http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2012...0p?INTCMP=SRCH
"Sources say that advertisers signed up include O2, Virgin Media and furniture company Harveys.
Virgin Media has confirmed it is running a campaign; the other companies had not responded to a request to comment at the time of publication."

The Sun on Sunday newspaper is being printed, ready to go on sale for the first time.
About three million copies are expected to be printed, and the company hopes well over two million will be sold.
|
The NOTW under another name
Quote:
Under the headline "the Sun will come out tomorrow", Saturday's paper described the launch of the 50p title as a "brilliant new era for the Sun".
|
Quote:
It said it would be launched with a TV advert later on Saturday, featuring readers from Edinburgh, London, Dublin and Manchester singing lines from the song Tomorrow from the musical Annie.
Marketing director Robin Painter said: "It shows how excited the great British public are about the new Sunday edition of the Sun."

You poor deluded guy Robin

I doubt he would try as he would feel dirtier afterwards, you would feel cleaner using your hand.
