  • The Sun's circulation is below 2 million and falling all the time. And that's easily the most popular newspaper. That means out of 63 million people in the UK 61 million don't read it. Hopkins has nothing to say and she's saying to to nobody.

    All newspapers are irrelevant and worthless. I don't know why people get so bothered about what is printed in them. It's all yesterday's news and tomorrow's chip paper. (or it would be if that was still allowed).

    I've always thought that the best way to discredit an idiot with a stupid argument is to let them express it and open themselves up to ridicule. Look how it worked with the BNP. It'll work that way with Katie Hopkins. Looks like it already is.

  • Exactly. But a lot of the rest of the media perpetuates the myth that the Sun matters by reporting on what it says and inviting its journalists onto broadcast media. The media loves nothing more than feeding from itself and the Westminster bubble.

    There are still media outlets which command genuinely large audiences (for example the Reuters news agency reaches over a billion people a day) but they don't use print, mostly never have and would never run an article by Katie Hopkins.
