This article is a
list of newspapers in the United Kingdom.
UK national daily newspapers
Traditionally newspapers could be split into serious-minded
newspapers, usually referred to as
broadsheets due to their large size, and
sometimes collectively as
the quality
press, and less serious newspapers, known for their small
size as
tabloids, and collectively
as
the popular press. However, due to considerations of
convenience of reading, for example in cafés and on trains,
The Independent and
The Times both switched to a
compact format, not much bigger
than that used by tabloids.
The
Guardian switched in September 2005 to what it describes
as a
Berliner format,
slightly larger than a compact. Its stablemate
The Observer has since followed suit.
Other Sunday broadsheets have tended to keep their larger size, as
the amount of content and number of sections they provide would, in
tabloid form, be too thick, heavy and cumbersome. All major UK
newspapers now have a free
online version,
though the four Murdoch titles plan to introduce charges for
content.
As well as individual newspapers there are newspapers which collect
news from each of the major newspapers and combine it into one.
In the
UK
there is the The Weekend City Press
Review which summarizes business and
financial news from 13 papers and
distributes the paper electronically on a subscription
basis.

users of public transport, with
newspapers placed on trains and buses and distributors operating

Local newspapers
Most towns
and cities in the UK have at least one local newspaper, such as the
Evening Post in Bristol
and The
Echo in Cardiff
.
However,
they are not known nationally for their journalism in the way that
(despite much syndication)
city-based newspapers in the USA
are
(e.g. The New York
Times,
The Washington
Post,
The Boston
Globe). A major exception to this pattern was the
well-regarded
Manchester Guardian, which dropped the
'Manchester' from its name (1959) and relocated its main operations
to London (1964). The group continues to produce a Mancunian paper,
the
Manchester Evening
News.

Papurau Bro
Papurau Bro (Area Papers) are
Welsh language newspapers produced
nominally monthly (typically 10 issues a year with a summer break)
which cover the news in a small area—a town, group of parishes, one
or a few valleys, etc., with a circulation of perhaps a few
thousand each. There are between 50 and 60
Papurau Bro
which cover the whole of Wales, plus the Welsh communities of
Liverpool and London. Papers are frequently named after local
features, connections, crafts, etc, or in dialect (
clebran,
clecs, clochdar, and clonc all imply
gossip).
The
first "papur bro" (Y Dinesydd) appeared in 1973 in Cardiff, and the following decade saw the establishment of
most of the others. Much of the work of producing the papers
is done voluntarily (aside from the printing), although financial
support is given by Bwrdd yr Iaith (
Welsh Language Board). Some of the
papers listed may have ceased publication.
