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 (WCPR) which
summarizes business and financial news from 13 papers and
distributes the paper electronically on a subscription basis.

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.
