The Sun
45%
Damn
-
With the sun and the Daily Mail being so high this list is rather depressing.
-
It's probably way less depressing than the equivalent list from eighteen months ago.
-
-
Anyone else shocked that 19% of people in "senior jobs and leadership positions" read the Daily Star??!!
-
The amount of daily mail here is too high.
-
Surprised the economist isn’t on here
-
Probably classed as a magazine rather than a newspaper?
-
-
A more interesting statistic would be to ask how many people actually read a newspaper.
-
41% of all adults and 60% of decision makers according to the article. But that includes online newspapers, and the number who actually named their favourite newspaper was far lower.

Evening Standard sounds really relaxing.

Jim Hacker: Don't tell me about the Press. I know exactly who reads the papers. The Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run the country; The Guardian is read by people who think they ought to run the country; The Times is read by the people who actually do run the country; The Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country; The Financial Times is read by people who own the country; The Morning Star is read by people who think the country ought to be run by another country; and The Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is.
Sir Humphrey: Oh, and Prime Minister, what about the people who read The Sun?
Bernard Woolley: Sun readers don't care who runs the country as long as she's got big tits.
