Andrew Neil: His world just isn't big enough

Andrew Neil has been running Sunday newspapers for the better part of the last quarter-century - but not yesterday. There was no Sunday newspaper on sale bearing the Neil imprint. The Business, that ailing, loss-making pink broadsheet, formerly known as The Sunday Business, whose death was foretold more often than Fidel Castro's, passed away peacefully on 1 October. In its place there will arise a new, serious, 72-page, trivia-free glossy magazine, also called The Business, on sale this Thursday.
