It's all down to marketing.
But the Asian News isn't local to Hyndburn, therefore people who only read that are missing out on news in their community.

It isn't all down to marketing, it's down to some people choosing to isolate themselves by only reading a medium that is being targeted at them, which also applies to the other types of press I gave as examples, gay, black etc.
