Ireland's Newspapers Suffer Continuing Slide in Circulations

Newspaper sales in Ireland, as elsewhere, continue to slide. But it would appear from the latest Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC) statistics that decline has slowed just a little in the Republic while, north of the border, the downward trend is more marked.   In the six months of 2015, overall daily sales in the Republic fell by 5.4% compared with the same period in 2014. But when compared to the second half of 2014 the decline was just 1.8%.
