Interesting, perhaps even scary fact – but what I’d like to know is, how many people who read The Sun also read The Business Day and vice versa?
Well saucy news sells.
Business Days should add a bit of spice to the corruption news ….maybe this should boost the sales
Business Day is a more specialised paper. It would be surprising to find the majority of people in a largely illiterate and unemployed society such as South Africa reading Business Day. Also, consider the comparative price of the papers.
