This article talks about the ABC figures as not a surprise due to the downfall in sales since this has been a recurring trend in recent years ever since digital media was introduced. This was due to how digital media features a style of convergence.
- Daily Star (which boasts every day of being 20p cheaper than the 50p Sun), was down by 2.5% to 440,471
- Daily Express, for example, sold an average of 391,626 copies a day in December 2016, down by 2.3% on the same month the year before
- Sun did much better: down by 10.5% to 1,611,464. And that total included some 95,000 bulks
In my opinion, I think that this would further expand upon how there is a decrease in the amount of print sales would suggest that the print industry is in a decline and these figures would promote it. However this has killed off journalism which would suggest how click-bait articles and fake news stories that favour what the readers political views are for them to read has made a negative impact on the news industry as a whole.
