Why do you think broadsheet newspapers are generally considered to be more reliable than tabloid newspapers? explain your answer.

Two main factors are important for broadsheet newspapers to be considered more reliable:

1. Size - bigger

2. Content - formal and informative.

Explanation:

The reason why normally broadsheet newspapers are generally considered to be more reliable than tabloid newspapers is due to the fact that, broadsheet newspapers are normally printed in bigger and organized pieces of papers that could give the appearance to the reader to be more organized, since they are also famous for publishing informative news generally of political and international interest. While the tabloid newspapers are normally published in a smaller format, that at first sight seems to be more informal. Besides, this kind of tabloid newspaper are commonly known for their publications about celebrities and the description of national news in a more informal way, only publishing international news when they are of real importance.

Broadsheet papers are printed with better organized pieces. Tabloid is also smaller than standard newspapers (which means less content) and focuses on less serious content so the availability of researchable topics is very limited. Broadsheet also takes a serious look at major issues today.
