Toronto Newspapers: Globe, Star and Sun
Our Toronto newspapers page provides information and links to keep, or bring you, up-to-date on all things Toronto, Ontario, and Canada. It also provides links, near the bottom, to our pages for each one of the major Toronto papers.
There are other papers, such as the free daily paper the Metro, which can be found in so many of the world's major cities, as well as local papers like the Scarborough Mirror. Our page will focus on the big three for now.
Possibly the oldest of the three is the
Globe and Mail,
tracing its history back to 1844. It has branched out across Canada and often advertises itself as 'Canada's newspaper'.
The Globe aims for a centre of the road editorial position, with both large business and lifestyle sections. It appeals to businessmen and managerial folks.
The largest circulation of the three is the
Toronto Star,
though it is almost totally sold in Ontario. It follows a liberal, metropolitan, just left of centre, path that leans heavily on causes both near and far.
The youngest of the three, though it builds on the foundation of an earlier paper, is the
Sun.
It's Toronto's tabloid paper, with all that entails -- a loud style, bikini-clad Sunshine Girls, and lots of ads.
