What is the difference between an evening newspaper and a morning newspaper?

Answer 1

A daily newspaper (such as the Daily Mail), is published every day of the week, and sometimes even has a special Sunday edition (such as the Mail on Sunday).

A weekly newspaper, however, appears only once a week. An example of this would be the Essex County Standard, traditionally published on Fridays.

Answer 2

The main difference is the time they are published and available for readers. Morning newspapers are published and distributed in the morning, providing news updates from the previous day, while evening newspapers are published in the afternoon or evening, updating readers on events that have occurred throughout the day.

Answer 3

An evening newspaper is published in the afternoon (it's called "evening" because people read it when they get home from work). The reporters must finish their stories in the morning. In the afternoon, reporters work on stories for the next day.

A morning paper is published in the middle of the night. Reporters turn in their stories the afternoon before it goes to press, or evening at the latest (at least that's the way it is with small-staff papers).

There are advantages and disadvantages to both. My afternoon paper often had fresher news than the morning paper because when something happened in the morning, it was in that evening's paper. On the other hand, if something happened in the afternoon, the morning paper would publish the news first.

Answer 4

They often contain summaries of the week's main stories, along with editorial comments and public views.
