Very specific? The sun "has ... the largest circulation of any daily newspaper in the United Kingdom" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sun_%28United_Kingdom%29) Looks like the specific audience you are talking about is the majority of the population.

This funny little conversation has gone on a few time this thread. Several times with only one person.
