Interested in misinformation, media and Harry and Meghan. It's one interest really.
And down they go, the UK tabloid print number, every single one this month. Reach titles Mirror (1.9%), Express (2.3%) lead the race to 0. The year on year numbers are awful. The Fail is down to, -1.2% for weekdays plus Saturday last month.

And down they go, the UK tabloids. The Fail lost 0.8% in September and MoS 1.4%. The Reach titles Mirror and Sunday M are in free fall with losses of 3.5 and 3.6%, respectively. Daily Express and Sunday Express, also Reach has 2.5% and 3.4%. Print makes more money than digital.

Transitioning to online news, going global, you say? The UK has three in the top 25: The Guardian -18% clicks last year, -3 last month, Fail -32% last year, that's one of the higher losses in the top 25 -1% last month. The Independent - 32% year and 0 last month.

UK top online news organization on minutes spent. That means all Mail together(MailonSunday, Mailonline, Daily Mail). Well, they're down by -9% for the year and look less like the future. Note Guardian-19% and that the BBC is 6x anyone else on.

UK news continue failing in the US: The Fail #13 is the only tabloid even in the top 50. May brought another -2%, bringing the yearly loss to -32%. The Guardian #21 lost -13% in May and moved into negative growth for the year. Lots of losses in May.

And down, they go, the UK print numbers. March was a quiet month, confirming the record breaking losses from February, and then adding some. Mail on Sunday, succesfully sued by Meghan, lost 1.4% of its print circulation in one month.

Liberal political YouTube channels outgrowing rightwing channels for the first time. MeidasTouch leading the charge.

February 2025 turned out to be worst tabloid print month in the seven years I have been monitoring this: The Fail -5% in a single month, The Mirror -4.5% and the Express -5.5%. Remember, print still make up a disproportional amount of their revenue.
