I'm amazed it was a loss maker.
I thought it was the biggest selling newspaper in the UK.

They just said on Talksport that it was the most popular paper in the world?
that can't be right can it?

Gotta think outside the uk... It's the only British tabloid you can get in north Cyprus, lots of expats throughout the world...

It probably is
because it's a sunday, so it sells more than dailies, there isn't a sunday sun (because that's what the NotW is effectively), which is the best selling daily, and I suspect that the sundays have more of a market amongst expats as well.

Then again, Rebekah Wade apparently counts as human, so who knows?
