It really wasn't. It had its own staff, from top to bottom, for starters. The News of the Screws had its own editorial agenda and also, the production of a weekly newspaper is an entirely different process to that of a daily.

It was owned by the same parent company, but then the Times is too.

If "The Sun on Sunday" is simply a seventh daily edition of the Sun, then it will be quite a different publication to the Screws. However, I think it more likely that Murdoch is simply trying to re-launch the Screws.
