It has a good circulation for a print publication (for some unfathomable reason), but I'm not sure their readers have the brand loyalty to really transfer to a television audience in any great number. Seems short-sighted and likely to alienate as many as it might gain.

Isn't The Sun the most popular of the tabloids, despite the Liverpool boycott?

Every microphone in the Vanessa Feltz studio has seemed to break throughout todays show, they have moved to the Piers Morgan studio.

I'm sure it would go down well on Liverpool TV.
The Sun did have an online TV service during their Sun+ subscription phase. It didn't last long.

The Sun no longer reports circulation figures, but The Metro overtook The Sun in 2019.

Calling it The S*n TV up here in Merseyside would be the final nail in the coffin for it.
RE: Talk TV - Globaltraffic24 - 21-06-2023
Much of the Sun’s readership will be casual readers looking for some gossip and sport on their lunch break. It’s a brand that will score highly with its customer base but doesn’t solicit any real loyalty or allegiance so they’ll struggle with this one. Their only hope of transferring readers over might be going heavy on sport and entertainment. Definitely not news talk.

I find it odd that The Sun stopped releasing circulation numbers. Wouldn't they want to boast about being the best selling paper (Metro wouldn't count when it's worded that way as it's given away rather than sold)?
I assume more people still buy newspapers than watch TalkTV?
