red top newspapers

Red top newspapers are British publications known for their bold headlines, attention-grabbing stories, and often sensational tone. They typically focus on celebrity gossip, scandals, human-interest stories, and entertainment, aiming to attract a wide readership. The term "red top" comes from their distinctive red mastheads or banners across the front page. These papers tend to prioritize sensationalism over in-depth analysis and are popular for their engaging, eye-catching presentation, though they may sometimes sacrifice journalistic depth for entertainment. Examples include The Sun and The Daily Star.
