Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Today was a national newspaper in the United Kingdom, which was published between 1986 and 1995.Today, with the American newspaper USA Today as inspiration, launched on Tuesday, 4 March 1986 with the front page headline, "Second Spy Inside GCHQ". Today was originally designed as a spin-off from the BBC radio programme, Today, with the newspaper featuring the strapline "Listen to Today on BBC Radio 4" during its early months of publication. At 18 pence, it was a middle-market tabloid, a rival to the long-established Daily Mail and Daily Express. It pioneered computer photosetting and full-colour offset printing at a time when national newspapers were still using Linotype machines and letterpress. The colour was initially crude, produced on equipment which had no facility for colour proofing, so the first view of the colour was on the finished product. However, it forced the conversion of all UK national newspapers to electronic production and colour printing. The newspaper''s motto, hung in the newsroom, was "propa truth, not propaganda".
