6. Read the passage below and say what facts you have learnt about the types of British
newspapers.
Newspapers are one of the most important mass media means of communication in our
modern society:
•
they have great influence over the public opinion;
•
they are strong force in political life;
•
they are an important advertising medium.
In Great Britain there are 2 types of newspapers – serious and tabloid (table 1). They differ:
•
in the way of presenting the news;
•
in the amount of space they devote to serious information, news, comments;
•
in topics;
•
in different approaches.
Both in GB and the USA, the freedom of press to publish whatever it wants,
without the Government interfering, is considered very important and the right to
people’s privacy is truly observed.
