Sun rises for first time in four years


http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2007/nov/09/abcs.pressandpublishing
The article is about The Sun newspaper having an increase in circulation, this is partly due to the 20p price cut in London and the South East. The sold an average of over 3 million copies each day.
The Daily Express, Daily Star and Daily Mail also enjoyed year-on-year increases - the latter due to a big push into home delivery. Also in the article it gives various statistics about different newspapers and their circulation increase or decrease. i.e. the Daily Mirror has the lowest circulation of the newspapers stated with just over 1million, whereas newspapers such as the Daily Star are beginning to see an increase

I think that this article highlights the rise and fall in newspapers, as since the growth of the Internet, newspapers have slowly declined and The Sun has managed to increase its circulation by using offers and also reducing its price in certain areas of the country to keep circulation figure at over 3million
