  If this wasn't a dead giveaway, the Sun is a tabloid so unlikely to be true unless you have a more credible source: "RUSSIAN soldiers began bombarding Ukraine yesterday — with Tinder messages looking for love."

    Aren’t all British papers tabloids?
    • jackweirdy 5y ago
      They are either tabloids or broadsheets, the terms coming from the historical size of the physical newspaper. Broadsheets are physically bigger, more text, typically more serious, aiming at a more sophisticated reader Tabloids physically smaller, more salacious, aiming at the mass market (Many broadsheets became smaller to save printing costs over time, but the categories still apply)

      No, some are still broadsheets, such as the Financial Times, the Daily Telegraph, and the Sunday Times.

      It’s worth saying that the word “tabloid” is typically used to refer to the style of journalism (ie the focus on entertainment) rather than in its historical context of the type/size of paper.

        In that context, if we take the question to mean "Aren’t all British papers horsehit?", then the answer is definitely yes.
