Trinity Denies Sunday People Sale Rumours
Trinity Mirror has “categorically denied” press reports that it is putting its national Sunday newspaper, the Sunday People up for sale.
A spokesman for Trinity Mirror today dismissed the claims as “pure speculation” saying: “The Sunday People is not up for sale and Trinity Mirror has no plans to put the paper on the market in the near future.”
According to ABC figures, the Sunday People, which competes directly with its sister title the Sunday Mirror, has seen circulation decline month on month over the last four months. It has been speculated that Trinity Mirror wanted to sell the title, which has a circulation of around 1.3 million, to concentrate on the Sunday Mirror, which enjoys a larger circulation of just over 1.6 million.
