Metro
Metro is a daily free newspaper first launched in the London area in 1999 and now (October 2007) distributed in 18 towns and cities across the UK: Bath, Birmingham, Bradford, Brighton, Bristol, Cardiff, Coventry, Derby, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leicester, Liverpool, London, Manchester, Nottingham, Newcastle, Wolverhampton and York. It claims to be the UK’s first urban national newspaper.
It’s published by Associated Newspapers Ltd, the publishers of the Daily Mail and the Evening Standard. However, it claims to take an independent approach towards news reporting.
In fact, there’s relatively little hard political or economic news in it. This is partly a consequence of the design; it’s intended to be read in 20 minutes, the length of a typical commuter journey. Much of each edition is given over to celebrity reporting, entertainment and sport. Its puzzles are also popular.
