It is the phenomenon of creation and policies, and in the aggregate, is one of the most important phenomena of the modern civilization.The emergence of journalism in Britain was prepared by the whole course of its economic, socio-political and cultural development. Development of book printing, the expansion of trade, including international, in the process of national formation, development and improvement of the language to create a complex of the preconditions for the emergence of periodical press. The appearance of the first edition, which preceded the creation of a daily print newspaper, falls on the end of the XV - beginning of XVI century.Now the UK continues to occupy one of leading places in the world on a saturation of the press. National or local newspaper read three of the four Englishmen. Published in the country 160 daily Newspapers, 1300 weeklies.
І. The History of the emergence of the press in the UK English history keeps the majestic monuments of the epoch to beginning of letter, are invaluable information about the life of the peoples who inhabited the British Isles. The inhabitants of the British Isles sought news (the last third of the XV century), although such a word in English. But his appearance was time, and (according to one version) formed the word “news” in an original way. Since the news came from all four sides of the world, and it was decided to take out the names of each side of the world in the first letters: “n” - “north” (“North”), “e” - “east” (“East”), “w” - “west” (“West”) and “s” - “south” (“South”). So, in the first half of the XV century in England, and in other Western European countries (France, Belgium etc.) appear and gradually extended the first - even handwritten - sheets news. In England they were known as “news”.
The first British Newspapers (end of XVI - the beginning of XVII century)To counter anti-government leaves- pamphlets, which, as noted in the documents, spread false rumours and insulting for the Royal court, slanderous attacks against the government”, - was allowed to exit the official newspaper “English mercury”(“English Bulletin”). The first issue appeared on 23 July 1588, with this date is usually associated appearance of periodical press in England, although this edition still very little was similar to the modern newspaper. Its founder was a printer Elizabeth.In 20 – 30’s of the XVII century in England was the first professional peddlers-distributors of printed word, the so-called “mercury” - distributors, news bulletins.Before the revolution of 1640 - 1660's the king of England through the Star chamber to issue licenses for the establishment of printing and issue of printed products at a high price. There was created a special Company of printers and booksellers, which was to carry out the registration of printed products, publications. It was called “stationners - book”.Among the new editions of the greatest distribution was received by “messengers” (“mercurius”). This type publications include the popular weekly “A Perfect Journal” and the newspaper “Moderate”, issued of Mobbot’s.After the execution of king Charles I (was beheaded on 30 January 1649) and the establishment of the Republic in England began an attack on the freedom of the press. In 1656, when O. Cromwell restored censorship in full, in England issued only 2 official newspaper “Mercurius politicus” and “The weekly reference book of the Commonwealth”.In the second half XVII century in England appears first magazine (on 5 January 1665, in Paris)“Journal de shroud” (“Journal of scientists; in another translation of “The Diary of scientists”) with a delay of several weeks in England appeared journal “The Philosophical works of the Royal society”,edited by Henry Oldenberg.

II. Differentiation of newspapers XIX century: quality and popular The first classic qualitative publications in the UK (“The Times”, “The Economist, The Guardian, The Daily Telegraph”, “The Financial Times”) emerged in the era of the industrial revolution and the primary accumulation of capital. The canons of quality press: • wide geographical and thematic range; 2. the emphasis on political and economic subjects; 3. interpretation journalism; 4. the accuracy of the facts, multiplied by the well-founded conclusions; 5. the differentiation of the material and the comments by the journalistic responsibility; 6. well-established publishing; 7. black and white photos; 8. a special journalistic style -journalese.
Historically, the British press distributed on the “qualitative” (quality press, broadsheet, “heavies”) covering the current socio-political events and “yellow” (penny-press, tabloid, yellow press), specializing in the scandalous stories. In the XIX century finally formed the main types of English newspapers: • 1) national daily morning; • 2) the London evening; • 3) morning and evening regional; • 4) Sunday; • 5) weekly regional. Such a classification of Newspapers still exists today.
Quality Newspapers • The most influential and the oldest daily newspaper in the country - the «Times», founded in 1785, has a circulation of 651 thousand copies. • All these publications are owned by the newspaper trust, Murdoch's news international.
Spokesmen for the views of the moderate left-wing and liberal circles are for the newspaper: The owner of the newspaper since 1999, is a publisher Trinity Mirror. Daily newspaper circulation in March 2012 amounted to 1,083,938. • founded in 1821, the circulation of 400 thousand copies founded in 1986 with a circulation of 250 thousand copies
