Daily Star

The Daily Star is a tabloid newspaper in the United Kingdom.^[1] It was first published on 2 November 1978. In 2011, it made 706,757 copies every day.^[2] It is quite similar to The Sun. It tries to be cheaper so more people buy it than The Sun.^[3] Although other newspapers have their favourite political party, the Daily Star does not. However, it was against Labour Prime Minister Gordon Brown in 2009.^[4] To attract women and teenage girls the Daily Star has a horoscope column.^[5]
