Examples of Tabloid Newspapers

I have used these 3 examples of 'The Sun' ,'The Daily Star' and 'The Daily Express' as examples of Tabloid newspapers. These are just starting points as i do not intend to do a tabloid newspaper, I am creating a local newspaper.
However, now that I have a basic idea of the layout of a newspaper, I am able to begin doing some practical work with basic knowledge behind me, while I will now begin researching local newspapers.

Traits of a Tabloid newspaper:
In Depth Structured Textual Analysis Questions A tabloid is a half sized newspaper, which is particularly suited to a high degree of photographic representation. Characteristics of a tabloid paper such as The Sun would include bold poster style layout and of course cheaper full page advertising and more regular single slots which appeal to advertisers who feel a their product is better promoted in a spot on its own, the tabloid category can also be sub-divided as there is a split between the popular dailies such as The Sun and The Mirror and papers such as the Daily Express and Daily Mail who have both changed from broadsheet to a tabloid in recent years.
