Well, 55 of you voted, so thank you for that.
As you can see, the most popular paper is the Sun, closely followed by the Daily Mail.
The Sun, originally launched as a left-of-centre broadsheet, it switched to tabloid format upon Rupert Murdoch’s takeover of the paper in 1969, and moved to the political right during the course of the 1970s, providing strong support to Margaret Thatcher’s Conservatives throughout her leadership of that party and, indeed, to John Major in the 1992 election. However, it’s supported Labour in the last three general elections, although the support has been fairly lukewarm (some might say opportunist).
That said, its political content is pretty superficial. Much more of the paper is taken up with celebrity gossip, sport, bizarre news stories, and games of chance like the National Lottery and its own Sun Bingo service.
The Daily Mail has a staunch right-wing agenda, and is lampooned by some for their over alarmist headlines, particularly about political asylum seekers. However, its formula, said by former owner Lord Northcliffe to give his readers a 'daily hate', has made the Daily Mail one of the most popular newspapers in the UK.

Oh yes, Craigyt, the Daily Sport! :skeptical:
Daily Sport
The Sport is an unapologetically trashy tabloid, with no pretensions at all to hard news coverage (even the Daily Star has some political items, even if very sketchily covered). There’s almost zero news content, and what news there is is generally outlandish, “Double decker bus found on the Moon!!!”-style stuff – but to make up for that, there’s plenty of soft porn pictures and adverts for “adult” chatlines.
Once again, many thanks for taking part
