Does the Sun really speak to more people than Russell Brand?
- The Sun sells 1.9m newspapers a day, according to the latest ABC figures from November.
- This is considerably more than the 48,000 copies Brand’s latest book, Revolution, had sold up to 22 November, according to Nielsen.
- He has 8.6 million Twitter followers
- 1.2 million more Facebook followers.
The Sun has stepped up its attacks on Russell Brand in recent days but in many ways the comedian is now much more influential than the paper. The Sun newspaper has run two front pages this week attacking comedian and political activist Russell Brand, but is it really controlling the public debate any more?
I think this paper’s reach on the majority of the world’s favourite social media sites. He has 8.6 million Twitter followers, which is 13 times more than the Sun. He also has 1.2 million more Facebook followers.
