In Britain there are 11 national daily newspapers and most people read one of them every day. There are two kinds of newspaper. One is large in size and has many detailed articles about national and international events. These newspapers are called the serious papers or the quality papers. The other kind, called the tabloids, are smaller in size, have more pictures, often in color, and short articles, often about less important events or about the private lives of well-known people. Although some people disapprove of tabloids, more people buy them than buy the serious newspapers. The Sun, for example, which is a tabloid, is the biggest-selling newspaper in Britain. The tabloids are sometimes called the gutter press. And in 1997, some photograph reporters of the tabloids were said to be involved in the tragic death of Princess Diana in France and they were criticized as Paparazzi by the public.
    Most national newspapers in Britain express a political opinion and people choose the newspaper that they read according to their own political beliefs. Most of the newspapers are right-wing which means they support the Conservative Party. These are the Daily Telegraph, which is the serious newspaper, the Daily Express, Daily Mail, Daily Star, the Sun and Today, which are all tabloids. Of the other serious newspapers, The Times, the oldest newspaper in Britain, did not formerly have one strong political view but it is now more right-wing. The Independent does not support any political party, and neither does the Financial Times, which concentrates on business and financial news. The Daily Mirror is the voice of the Labor Party.
