Newspapers and Media

In UK  issues many type of newspaper. Some of them is daily or come out on Sundays. Two types is tabloids and broadsheets. Main difference between two tabloids and broadsheets,  the broadsheets is larger in size than tabloids. Also headlines have not the same writting. Examples for tabloids is 'The Mirrors' and for broadsheets is 'The Times'

The headlines for three different newspaper on Monday (7/2/2011) were:

• The Guardian: Opposition cautious after Suleiman open talks
• The Sun: Big fat gypsy counsil house
•  The Times: Big Society being 'destroyed' by cutbacks

As we can se The Guardian is broadsheet is more for bussiness or for people who like quality news. Moreover The Times is tabloids but content is similar with broadsheet. However The Sun is typical tabloids more about gossip and more interesting news.
