The Daily Mirror, tabloid, left of centre political standpoint is the only
large national paper which supports the Labour Party. It can boast of the third
mass circulation. It is one of the first papers to use strip cartoons.
Most daily newspapers have no Sunday editions, but there are Sunday
papers. The latter are sometimes closely linked with national dailies either
because they are owned by the same proprietor or because “they are printed on
the same machine”.
The Sunday press for a long time has been notorious for its extremes of
good and bad quality, and for enormous circulation of some of the more
scandalous papers. Much space in the Sundays is given to features, comment
and leisure interests.
The national quality Sundays are The Observer, The Sunday Times, The
Sunday Telegraph. They have smaller circulations than the popular Sunday
papers. Apart from providing wide international news coverage the quality
Sunday papers devote much space to literature and the arts. The three Sunday
qualities and some populars produce colour supplements as part of the paper.
The popular Sunday papers (The News of the World, The Sunday Mirror,
The Sunday Express, The Mail on Sunday) are the newspapers with huge
circulation bringing reports of violence, crime and scandal. With the Sunday
quality and popular papers the differences between them are even more
marked.
