Newspaper

 Times newspaper is a British national 'quality' newspaper first published in 1785. The Times had been published by Times Newspaper since 1981 a subsidiary of News UK, Wholly owned by News Corp, Rupert Murdoch's company. 

This edition was published on March 13th, 2019, after Theresa May had encountered another Commons defeat over her Brexit proposals. 

The Times is famous for having a range of journalists with varied political viewpoints which allows the newspaper to offer a more neutral political stance on Brexit negotiations

In 1965 some media researchers analysed international news stories to find out what kind of stories came top of news 'agenda' worldwide. Their findings led to them creating a list of 'news values' - a kind of scoring system. A story that scores highly on each news value is very likely to make the front page, or the start of a TV news bulletin. It's not just down to news values that decides which stories come top of the news agenda; journalists and news editors draw on their own experiences to decide what should be deemed the most important, or what should come on top.
