LONDON (Alliance News) - Publisher Trinity Mirror PLC is set to close its daily newspaper 'New Day' just nine weeks after it was launched, the BBC reported.
The tabloid newspaper was launched in February, with hopes to sell about 200,000 copies a day, but sales are reported to have fallen to about 40,000, according to the BBC.
Reports suggest that the New Day's final edition will be on Friday, with a statement from Trinity Mirror due later Thursday, the BBC said.
