Local newspapers

After researching popular newspapers I looked at some local newspapers such as the Halstead Gazette and the Sudbury Mercury to differentiate between smaller newspapers and larger more commercial ones. 


The Halstead Gazette included local news including upcoming events, local people's achievements and the local weather forecast. It also included adverts for local businesses and had a page where people were selling cars etc. 


The Sudbury Mercury is similar to the Halstead Gazette as it included similar local news stories. It also featured a Sport sub-heading which showed information regarding local sports teams, mainly football. There were also hyperlinks in different colours at the top for house sales, a dating section and other topics.
