Tabloids: Comes from the name given by the London based pharmaceutical company Burroughs Wellcome & Co. to the compressed tablets they marketed as "Tabloid" pills in the late 1880s.- There are, broadly, two main types of tabloid newspaper: red top and compact.Red top tabloids are so named due to their tendency, in British and Commonwealth usage, to have their mastheads printed in red ink; the term compact was coined to avoid the connotation of the word tabloid, which implies a red top tabloid, and has lent its name to tabloid journalism, which is journalism after the fashion of red top reporters.E.g red tops tabloids: The Sun, the Daily Star, the Daily Mirror and the Daily Sport.Compact tabloids: use an editorial style more closely associated with broadsheet newspapers. The term compact was coined in the 1970s by the Daily Mail, one of the earlier newspapers to make the change, although it now once again calls itself a tabloid.E.g compact: Daily mail, daily express, The independent, the morning star.
