Sun raises prices for weekend editions
News UK hikes prices of both tabloid weekend titles, with Sunday edition planning to expand size of existing sections
The cover price of the Sun on Sunday will rise by 20p to £1, and the price of its Saturday counterpart will be hiked by 10p to 70p.
The rise still leaves the Sun on Sunday 20p cheaper than red-top rival the Sunday Mirror, and 50p cheaper than the next-best selling Sunday title, the Mail on Sunday. The Sun on Sunday’s lead over the Sunday edition of the Mail fell below 40,000 for the first time in February.
In my opinion the fact that The Sun are having to raise their broadsheet prices once again proves that the newspaper industry is in decline as a result of people no longer buying newspapers and getting their news online. I believe that broadsheet prices will continue to rise and sales continue to decline until all newspapers eventually move online.
