Mirror and The Times (unfinished)

Image
The mirror is a British daily tabloid newspaper leaning towards the left wing political bias. The times on the other hand is a broadsheet which although tries to remain unbiased and factual still leans towards the right wing bias. The daily mirror is owned by the publishing company Reach Plc which is owned by Simon fox. The mirror is edited by Lloyd Embley. The Times is owned by News uk which is a publishing company owned by Rupert Murdoch. The mirror is a tabloid news paper. A tabloid newspaper typically has pages half the size of a standard broadsheet and typically deals with popular culture and dominated by "sensational" stories. The times on the other hand is a traditional broadsheet. A broadsheet usually has way bigger pages and deals with a more serious tone yet still takes a bias like a tabloid paper.
