Looks made-up. Google search on "Sanity Index" newspaper united kingdom produced nothing relevant, and neither did less-restrictive searches, which fails WP:GNG. The article content itself is sourced from another Wikipedia page, which violates WP:V, and it's a derived result, which violates WP:NOR. So really a non-starter all around.

- Speedy delete as a hoax (and tagged as such). There is no indication that anyone (other than this article's author) has devised a "sanity index" comparing the ratio of readers of "proper" newspapers to tabloids. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 14:38, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Doesn't look like it was intended to be a hoax per se, but if the article is done in via CSD, fine... Zad68 (talk) 14:40, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
