On British newspapers.
Briefly speaking, what if any British press do you read and also, in terms of what you know, what do you think about - The Sun, Mirror, Daily Mail, Guardian, Financial Times etc etc newspapers, cheers, thanks.
shareI stopped reading newspapers about 20 years ago.
shareIt's a dead industry here in the UK.
Many major publications folded when free newspapers like the Metro and others became available. Some of the others also decided to go free , such as the Evening Standard.
The first 3 above are gutter press, tabloid rubbish. They still survive online. But there is little actual news in these publications...its largely gossip columns, articles about celebrities, and tons of adverts.
The others I don't read but I know they were nice highly respected, but far less so now.
Internet and 24 hour news channels basically killed the industry.
The Red tops are basically comics. The rest are either one extreme or the other politically. I like to hear a balanced view (if that's possible).
