History of British Newspapers: The Sun
By: Roger and Luana

Newspaper Treasure Hunt!

In United Kingdom we can find two types of newspapers:
  • -Tabloids, that they publish news about sensationalist journalism.
  • -Broadsheets, that they publish news about serious journalism.

The difference between them is the size, Broadsheets (600 mm by 380 mm) are bigger than Tabloids (half the size of broadsheets at 380 mm by 300 mm).

Yellow journalism is a type of journalism that downplays legitimate news in favour of eye-catching headlines that sell more newspapers.

The Guardian is a British daily newspaper owned by the Guardian Media Group. It is published Monday to Saturday in the Berliner format. It was founded in Manchester in 1821 by John Edward Taylor. If we want to buy it costs 90 pence (in GBP) from Monday to Friday and on Saturday, it is £1.70.

The Sun is a tabloid newspaper published in United Kingdom and Ireland. His first published was on 15th September 1964. The name of this newspaper means, ‘The Sun’: Student University News. His news published are about daily life news and yellow journalism that makes a little bit strange his headlines but also different from the others. The Sun is so controversial because is a tabloid and is different from the others, so inside it you can fins ‘absurd’ things, nute girls, and news that you wouldn’t imagine that exist but, they really exist.
