Will a cultural revolution rebuild the 'People's Daily'?
Article Abstract:
There are now 10,000 national and local newspapers and magazines in China, and these are proving strong competitors with the People's Daily. This newspaper tends not to focus on the subjects in which people are really interested, such as crime and fashion, and its circulation has fallen to only 3 million, with almost all sales going to government offices. However, efforts are now being made to make the People's Daily more attractive. It is likely that this publication will still remain rather dull compared with others.

I'll take the high ground
Article Abstract:
The Daily Record, the most powerful newspaper in Scotland, has strong links with the Labour party. It has worked extremely hard to destroy the image of the Scottish National Party (SNP), and this has included criticizing SNP supporter Sean Connery, one of the most high-profile Scotsmen. The stance taken by the Daily Record is reflected in all other Scottish newspapers, which are not prepared to give the SNP editorial support, even though this party is supported by one in four Scottish voters.
