The London newspaper that is best known outside Great Britain is probably The Times. It begins in 1785 and has a high reputation for reliable news and serious comments on the news.
It calls itself an independent paper, which means that it does not give its support to a particular political party. Its leading articles(or leaders , as they are usually called) give the opinions of its editorial staff, not those of the owners of the paper.
The correspondence columns of The Times are always interesting and often amusing. Most of the letters are on serious subjects, but from time to time there will be a long correspondence on a subject that is not at all serious, perhaps on a new fashion of dress, or the bad manners of the younger generation compared with the manners of thirty years ago.
The Times, of course, does not publish the strip cartoon(连环漫画) that are so common in the cheaper and popular papers. It does, however, publish a cross-word puzzle every day, with clues that are both clever and amusing. Many Times readers try to solve the puzzle every morning as they travel to town by train from their homes in the suburbs.
The Daily Express and the Daily Mail are also independent, though they are usually more sympathetic co Conservative than to Socialist Policies. The Daily Telegraph, also a serious paper with a high reputation, is not independent. It supports the Conservative Party.
