Preferred term

British tabloid press  

Definition

  • A class of popular British newspapers, mainly established in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, aimed at mass readerships, and became notorious for their focus on scandal and sensationalized human interest stories. Although in long-term decline, they remain dominant in terms of circulation and the setting of the news agenda for other British media organizations and politicians.
