A 1902 item in London's <i>Westminster Gazette</i> noted, "The proprietor intends to give in tabloid form all the news printed by other journals." Thus <i>tabloid journalism</i> in 1901, originally meant a paper that condensed stories into a simplified, easily absorbed format. The term preceded the 1918 reference to smaller sheet newspapers that contained the condensed stories.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Types">Types</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Tabloid_(newspaper_format)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Types"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Tabloid newspapers, especially in the <a href="/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">United Kingdom</a>, vary widely in their target market, political alignment, editorial style, and circulation. Thus, various terms have been coined to describe the subtypes of this versatile paper format. There are, broadly, two main types of tabloid newspaper: <i>red top</i> and <i>compact</i>. The distinction is largely of editorial style; both red top and compact tabloids span the width of the political spectrum from <a href="/wiki/Socialism" title="Socialism">socialism</a> to <a href="/wiki/Capitalism" title="Capitalism">capitalist</a> <a href="/wiki/Conservative" class="mw-redirect" title="Conservative">conservatism</a>, although red-top tabloids, on account of their historically working-class target market, generally embrace <a href="/wiki/Populism" title="Populism">populism</a> to some degree. Red top tabloids are so named due to their tendency, in British and Commonwealth usage, to have their <a href="/wiki/Nameplate_(publishing)" title="Nameplate (publishing)">mastheads</a> printed in red ink; the term <i>compact</i> was coined to avoid the connotation of the word <i>tabloid</i>, which implies a red top tabloid, and has lent its name to <a href="/wiki/Tabloid_journalism" title="Tabloid journalism">tabloid journalism</a>, which is journalism after the fashion of red top reporters. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Red_top_tabloids">Red top tabloids</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Tabloid_(newspaper_format)&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Red top tabloids"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Red_tops" class="mw-redirect" title="Red tops">Red tops</a></div> <p>Red top tabloids, named after their distinguishing red <a href="/wiki/Nameplate_(publishing)" title="Nameplate (publishing)">mastheads</a>, employ a form of writing known as <a href="/wiki/Tabloid_journalism" title="Tabloid journalism">tabloid journalism</a>; this style emphasizes features such as <a href="/wiki/Sensationalism" title="Sensationalism">sensational</a> crime stories, astrology, <a href="/wiki/Gossip_column" class="mw-redirect" title="Gossip column">gossip columns</a> about the personal lives of celebrities and sports stars, and <a href="/wiki/Junk_food_news" title="Junk food news">junk food news</a>.

Like their common journalistic connotations, Philippine tabloids usually report sensationalist crime stories and celebrity gossip, and some tabloids feature topless photos of girls. Several tabloids are vernacular counterparts of English broadsheet newspapers by the same publisher, like <i><a href="/wiki/Pilipino_Star_Ngayon" title="Pilipino Star Ngayon">Pilipino Star Ngayon</a></i> (<i>The Philippine Star</i>), <i><a href="/wiki/Inquirer_Bandera" title="Inquirer Bandera">Bandera</a></i> (<i>Philippine Daily Inquirer</i>), and <i>Balita</i> (<i>Manila Bulletin</i>). In the <a href="/wiki/Southern_Philippines" class="mw-redirect" title="Southern Philippines">Southern Philippines</a>, a new weekly tabloid, <i>The Mindanao Examiner</i>, now includes media services, such as photography and video production, into its line as a source to finance the high cost of printing and other expenses. It is also into independent film making. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Europe">Europe</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Tabloid_(newspaper_format)&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Europe"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The <a href="/wiki/Berliner_(format)" title="Berliner (format)">Berliner</a> format, used by many prominent <a href="/wiki/Europe" title="Europe">European</a> newspapers, is sized between the tabloid and the broadsheet. In a newspaper context, the term <i>Berliner</i> is generally used only to describe size, not to refer to other qualities of the publication. The biggest tabloid (and newspaper in general) in Europe, by circulation, is Germany's <i><a href="/wiki/Bild" title="Bild">Bild</a></i>, with around 2.5 million copies (down from above 5 million in the 1980s).

Many of these are essentially straightforward newspapers, publishing in tabloid format, because subway and bus commuters prefer to read smaller-size newspapers due to lack of space. These newspapers are distinguished from the major daily newspapers, in that they purport to offer an "alternative" viewpoint, either in the sense that the paper's editors are more locally oriented, or that the paper is editorially independent from major media conglomerates. </p><p>Other factors that distinguish "alternative" weekly tabloids from the major daily newspapers are their less-frequent publication, and that they are usually free to the user, since they rely on ad revenue. Alternative weekly tabloids may concentrate on local and neighbourhood-level issues, and on entertainment in bars, theatres, or other such venues. </p><p>Alternative tabloids can be positioned as <a href="/wiki/Upmarket" class="mw-redirect" title="Upmarket">upmarket</a> (quality) newspapers, to appeal to the better-educated, higher-income sector of the market; as <a href="/wiki/Middle-market_newspaper" title="Middle-market newspaper">middle-market</a> (popular); or as <a href="/wiki/Downmarket" class="mw-redirect" title="Downmarket">downmarket</a> (sensational) newspapers, which emphasize sensational crime stories and celebrity gossip. In each case, the newspapers will draw their advertising revenue from different types of businesses or services. An upmarket weekly's advertisers are often organic grocers, boutiques, and theatre companies while a downmarket's may have those of trade schools, supermarkets, and the sex industry. Both usually contain ads from local bars, auto dealers, movie theaters, and a classified ads section. </p> <div style="clear:both;" class=""></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2
