British newspapers can be divided into 12 main groups.
NEWSPAPERS
1. In Britain there are 12 national daily newspapers and most people read one of them every day. Daily newspapers are not published on Sunday. National Sunday newspapers are larger than daily ones. Most of them express a political opinion and people choose the newspaper that they read according to their own political beliefs.
2. "The Times" is considered to be the most authoritative newspaper voice in the country. "The Guardian" appeals to well-educated readers interested in intellectual and social affairs. "The Daily Telegraph" is bought by educated upper-middle and middle-class readers. The "Financial Times", printed on pink paper, is read by businessmen
3. Fleet Street in London used to be the home of most national daily and Sunday newspapers and that is why people often say "Fleet Street" to mean "the press" even now. In the 1980s most of the newspapers moved to new buildings in different parts of London to use new printing technologies.
4. British newspapers can be divided into two groups: quality and popular (tabloid). Quality newspapers are more serious and cover home and foreign news while popular newspapers like shocking, personal stories. These two groups of papers can be distinguished easily because the quality newspapers are twice the size of the popular newspapers.
