National UK circulation figures for September 2024 continue to show falling circulations among the corporate private sector, allied with underperforming digital rights management approaches to alternative strategies.
These figures are part of long term circulation losses seen throughout most of the "western" world after 2001.
The trend is toward falling public confidence and disbelief in the "message" that private sector media corporations are trying to establish.
Presumably your editors know better, or perhaps you just think they do!

I know nothing in the world that has as much power as a word. Sometimes I write one, and I look at it, until it begins to shine.

The Ocean, by Nathaniel Hawthorne

The Ocean
By Nathaniel Hawthorne
The Ocean has its silent caves,
Deep, quiet, and alone;
Though there be fury on the waves,
Beneath them there is none.
The awful spirits of the deep
Hold their communion there;
And there are those for whom we weep,
The young, the bright, the fair.
Calmly the wearied seamen rest
Beneath their own blue sea.
The ocean solitudes are blest,
For there is purity.
The earth has guilt, the earth has care,
Unquiet are its graves;
But peaceful sleep is ever there,
Beneath the dark blue waves.
