Why do Liverpool fans hate The Sun? The Sun's media coverage of the disaster led for a large majority in the city of Liverpool to boycott the newspaper, and sales dipped following 1989 and have not recovered since.
There are four national daily newspapers in Scotland:
- The Daily Record (Trinity Mirror) is Scotland's leading tabloid.
- The Scotsman (Johnston Press), based in Edinburgh, is a former broadsheet now printed in tabloid format.
- The Herald (Newsquest), based in Glasgow, is Scotland's only broadsheet newspaper.
The Sun targets the middle social classes, most of whom haven't attended higher education. Two thirds of its readers are over 35 years old, 54% are male and its biggest audience share comes from the C2DE demographic.
Weekly
- New Statesman – independent political and cultural magazine.
- The New Worker – from the New Communist Party of Britain.

- Socialist Worker – from the Socialist Workers Party.
- Sunday Mirror – sister newspaper to Daily Mirror, published every Sunday.
The company is now printing The Sun in its Knowsley plant, which runs the same triple width Manroland presses as in Dinnington. It has a total of 19 presses in Knowsley, Broxbourne and Glasgow.
The man who owns The Sun, Rupert Murdoch, is back in the news again. The 81-year-old's been giving evidence to the Leveson Inquiry into ethics in the media industry.
But at the moment, the sun will cost a total of nearly 30,693,153 septillion dollars. There, you have it.
