  The population of the United Kingdom, or Great Britain and Northern Ireland, is now over 65,000,000. About 36,000,000 newspapers are sold every day!
  

• 4 слайд

  The British people, therefore, are great readers of newspapers. There are few homes to which one newspaper is not delivered every morning. Many households have two, or even three, newspapers every day.

  English newspaper writing dates from the 17th century. At the close of the 16th century short news pamphlets began to appear. Any such publication either presented news from only one source or dealt with one specific subject. News pamphlets appeared only from time to time and саnnot be classed as newspapers, though they were unquestionably the immediate forerunners of the British press.
  

• 6 слайд

  The first of any regular series of English newspapers was the Weekly News which first appeared on May 23, 1622. It lasted for some twenty years till in 1641 it ceased publication.
  

• 7 слайд

  The 17th century saw the rise of a number of other news sheets which, with varying success, struggled on in the teeth of discouragement and restrictions imposed by the Crown.
  

• 8 слайд

  With the introduction of a strict licensing system many such sheets were suppressed, and the Government, in its turn, set before the public a paper of its own — The London Gazette, first published on February 5, 1666.
  The paper was a semi-weekly and carried official information, royal decrees, news from abroad, and advertisements.
  

• 9 слайд

  The first English daily newspaper — the Daily Courant — was brought out on March 11, 1702. The paper carried news, largely foreign, and no comment, the latter being against the principles of the publisher, as was stated in the first issue of his paper.

  Fleet Street has been the home of the British press for 300 years. Here are published almost all of Britain's national newspapers.

  British papers fall in to 2 categories - broadsheet (so called because the pages are very big) and tabloid (the page size is more magazine size). The broadsheet papers are the more cerebral ones, the tabloids are the ones that have been giving the nation a bad name, but which are read in the greatest numbers.
  

• 12 слайд

  The popular newspapers (tabloids) naturally have much larger circulations than the serious newspapers. The number of daily newspapers published in London is only nine or ten, but their total circulation is about 16,000,000.
  

• 13 слайд

  The "popular" papers are smaller in size, with lots of pictures, big headlines and short articles. They are easy to read and often contain little real information. They usually have stories about ordinary people and events which are included because they are amusing or odd. Examples of this type of newspapers are "The Daily Mail“, "The Sun“ and "The Daily Mirror“.
  

• 14 слайд

  The Sun is a tabloid daily newspaper published in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland with the highest circulation of any daily English-language newspaper in the world, standing at 3,107,412 copies daily in the first half of 2006.
  

• 15 слайд

  The Daily Mail is a British tabloid newspaper first published in 1896. It is Britain's second biggest selling daily newspaper after The Sun and arguably the most conservative in viewpoint. The Mail was originally a broadsheet, but switched to its current tabloid format on 3 May 1971, on the 75th anniversary of its founding.

  The more serious reader, who wants to read about politics and foreign af­fairs reads "quality" papers. These papers, such as "The Daily Telegraph," "The Times "and "The Guardian" have diffe­rent pages for home news, foreign affaire, feature articles, fashion, business, sport and so on.
  

• 17 слайд

  Guardian Unlimited is the web version of the daily paper. The Guardian is a left-leaning broadsheet, good at covering social and political issues and international news.
  

• 18 слайд

  The Daily Telegraph is a British broadsheet newspaper, founded in 1855. It is one of the few remaining daily newspapers printed in the Broadsheet format in the United Kingdom, as most other broadsheet publications have converted to the smaller tabloid/compact or Berliner formats. Its sister paper, The Sunday Telegraph, was founded in 1961.

  People in Britain buy more papers on Sunday than on weekdays. The Sunday papers have higher circulation than the dailies. For example The Weekly Telegraph (The Sunday version of The Daily Telegraph) is really popular, too.

  In contrast to most of the other countries, British publishers created a large number of new specialized newsmagazines that dealt specifically with war news.
  

• 23 слайд

  One of many new British magazines was called 'the Illustrated War News'. As the title hints, this magazine was mainly intended for the publiction of war illustrations: quality photographs and drawings.
