Premium Review The Evening Standard: Nice evening (340 words)
by Leticia50 - written on 19/08/08 (Very useful, 43 readings)
Rating:

I live in London and I spend a lot of time abroad on business. I cannot think of many things I miss about London, but surely the newspaper "Evening Standard" is one of those very few, or may be the only one! The Evening Standard is published 5 times during the day, and it can be bought starting around Midday. I admire them for ...

This is my paper- I religiously buy it from whatever supermarket I am in, every day of the week. The Evening Standard, as far as I am aware, is a paper which is available for people who live in London, Unfortunately you wont be able to buy this if your not within the M25ish area. The paper overall is in my view, quite trashy, ...

The Evening Standard is the most read daily newspaper in London and Greater London. It is a newspaper which cost 50 pennies and in my opinion is really worth tis money and is the only newspaper I regularly buy and read in UK. I think that although it is a local newspaper, the fact that it covers International affiars and also the fact ...

Premium Review It's ok when your a londoner...... (346 words)
by loopy101 - written on 15/08/01 (Useful, 83 readings)
Rating:

London's only daily newspaper is the Evening Standard first published way back in 1827. The newspaper is published 5 times daily (between 9.30 and 17.30), therefore updating news as it breaks. The most recent first for the Evening Standard, being the verdict of the Jeffrey Archer trial! Editorial it covers national, international, ...

Premium Review The Evening Standard: How do they do it? Here's how (670 words)
by Walli10 - written on 05/06/01 (Very useful, 214 readings)
Rating:

The best thing about the standard is the amazing ability of their newsdesk to turn around stories. They can have a full report, plus pic, on a paper available across London just hours after a story breaks. I have to say that as a journalist, I was always impressed by this - and having now worked there, I am even more so. The Evening ...

Premium Review Eeeeee'ng Staaaaaaaaaaaadd (305 words)
by jamescridland - written on 29/03/01 (Useful, 11 readings)
Rating:

The thing that really amazes me about the Evening Standard (or the Eeeeeeee'ng Staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadd as it is apparently known by the street seller) is that it's published by the same people as the Daily Mail. Step back a bit. The Daily Mail. The most intolerant, nasty, bigoted, newspaper in the country. Yet the Standard, ...

Premium Review The Evening Standard: More superior than Standard. (338 words)
by burgess - written on 15/02/01 (Very useful, 452 readings)

I'm not a great one for buying newspapers. I use to get a tabloid every day and read the scandal and funnies. Then one day last November I was dismissed from my job. That was a bit of a fateful day, but not something that needs to be discussed here. The good thing to come out of that day was I had to set my brain to battlestations to ...

I enjoy reading the Evening Standard on my way home from work. I am a born and bred Londoner and use the underground as part of my commute, the standard is the easiest way to while away my evening journey. I'm out of touch most of the time and most often don't get to hear the latest news stories until I get home, so its ...

Premium Review The Evening Standard: STANDARD! (Revised) (1101 words)
by spacelamb - written on 25/01/01 (Very useful, 141 readings)
Rating:

For anyone who has ever lived or worked in London, "Standard!" is a familiar sound. So too is "Staaaaaaaaaaaa!" which is what a lot of vendors actually shout, saving valuable millilitres of breath. (If breath is measured in millilitres, which it probably isn't). Anyway, by way of explanation for those who have never had the ...

I mean how do they get the news into print so fast. I used to read it on the train home before I heard it on the evening news!-amazing. Obviously its wonderful for the upto the minute news and as expected there is an expected biased on news for London, however like most things in London it would do well to remember that it is part of a bigger ...

I like this I think it is really good and it is a very good idea. I use it all the time and I think that you should get it too. I like this because it works really well, and if you get it you would use it all the time too. I really think that you should go out and buy this now, because you will not know what you are missing unless you buy this. So ...

Premium Review STIRRING IT UP (108 words)
by Plumptious - written on 18/10/00 (Useful, 26 readings)
Rating:

I find the Evening Standard reasonably priced and a decent read. It has a lesser incidence of the attempts at politically inspired crowd rousing rhetoric many of the other papers seem to indulge in. Like the other papers, it does consistently make rallying calls, which are always great for getting a mob behind you, thus raising ...

Premium Review The Evening Standard: Easy news digest (118 words)
by CarpeDiem - written on 07/10/00 (Useful, 25 readings)
Rating:

The Standard has a bit of a monopoly in the London evening paper market, but it uses it well. A tabloid style paper, normally sold for 35p, it gives a concise run-down of the day's news, and three different editions are printed during the day. It is simply an easy read for the commute home. One of the few problems is that the breaking news is ...

On a recent trip to London I bought the Evening Standard and was very impressed. I'm normally quite scathing of newspapers as I think tabloids are comic books with no real content, broadsheets are longwinded and tedious, and, local newspapers are normally mickey mouse attempts at journalism. I found the Evening Standard ...

Premium Review The Evening Standard: THE EVENING STANDARD IS A GOOD READ & GREAT VALUE (266 words)
by Parsley - written on 07/09/00 (Very useful, 113 readings)
Rating:

If you live or work in London, this is definitely the paper for you, with several editions a day, it keeps you right up to date with all the local and national news. It is a high quality tabloid and at only 35p it is great value for money as it comes with useful free supplements several times a week. Monday's paper comes with a job ...

Premium Review Crap for sport (128 words)

I think it is disgraceful the way in which the superficial Evening Standard covers much of London's sport. Over the years, cricket has been relegated to barely a single column with no scorecard details at all for the majority of matches including Surrey and Middlesex - no wonder that the public are losing interest in the game. As for ...

Premium Review The Evening Standard: standard, standard get your standard (97 words)
by cellnetsms - written on 12/08/00 (Useful, 11 readings)

The paper for the middle class commuter. This paper has broadsheet qualities in the size of a tabloid. It has a good coverage of the news events, has really good business section with share prices, has good layout of the evenings television programmes and overall a very good paper. In addition every thursday there is 'hot tickets' the ...

by tms101 - written on 03/07/00 (Somewhat useful, 15 readings)

The best thing the Evening Standard could do is stop printing and help save on paper. It isn't even a newspaper any more - preferring to advertise instead leaving four news pages in total if you count the columns up (could be a slight exaggeration but who is to say?!) Surely a London paper could have a whole lot more to write rather ...

Premium Review The Evening Standard: London deserves better (154 words)
by Orac - written on 20/06/00 (Somewhat useful, 15 readings)
Rating:

The Standard is a dull middlebrow unimaginative newspaper that shows no interest in London or the people that live there. In a city with such a diverse population, the Standard only shows any interest in White Upper Middle Class readers who shop in Harvey Nicks, take trips to Glyndebourne and care about who wins at Henley. London is the ...

The Evening Standard has always been one of my favourite reads. I allways pick up a copy to read on the train home and love the features arrticles and reviews. What I love about it is that it has Broadsheet content on a tabloid format. However of late this supurbly entertaining paper seems to have turned down hill slightly ...
