It said newspaper COMPANY with largest circulation and not total country circulation.

Amazed it's not China, this type of question the answer is usually China.

These Expert level questions, where you are not allowed to use hints, can be brutal at times. Yes I got this one wrong.

Chance Palmer, India rang a bell with me.

More history is needed of company figures, etc. Plus comparison of at least #2 circulation. BAD ENTRY for good question.

Got it right but truly terribly worded question.

How much is the daily circulatio vs the largest in China, India and the USA? This should be posted for educational as well as accuracy purposes! With out the numbers, the answer is subject to challenge.

I didn't choose China for two reasons. Gov't controlled media and I felt most citizens would use devices versus newspaper for the news they were allowed to read! I was still chose wrong as I thought it was India....

The largest-circulating newspaper in the world in any language is the Japanese Yomiuri Shimbun with a circulation of just over 14 million. I too got it wrong.

Yay I'm right. For a change. It's not a closed society so I figured since we watch so much tv Japan would be the most sensible. Too many restrictions in China.

I thought for sure India because it has a vigorous free press and a lot of newspaper, enormous populations, and lots of Indians who read English as well as native languages. Not China because the government there keeps a tight rein on the press, so intuitively I figured not China even though it has potentially upwards of 2 billion eyes who could read print, not so speak of electronic media. Japan has a much smaller population total, but then Tokyo has over 20 million or more people or more, most of whom are highly educated. Moreover it has a really active political system too. So I guess that makes sense.

I was mistaken and thought it was China!

Richard Ahern I have reviewed at least ten of his questions and found numerous errors.

All of the intelligent people agree that China is the answer. If I had reviewd this question I would have caught it and explained why.
