Nespaper Names and Logos


The Advertiser (York)

The Harrogate Advertiser

The Yorkshire Post

The Knaresborough Post

The Ripon Gazette

The Advertiser (York) stands out to readers because of the red and white contrasting colours, and the red background gives the readers an idea that it is a tabloid.

The Harroagte Advertiser is written in 'Times New Roman' a very formal font, in white text on a blue background, which gives the impression that you can trust the paper and the news will be accurate. The 'Harrogate' part makes it obvious that it's an ultra local newspaper.

The Yorkshire Post is written in block capitals and stands out to readers. The font is very large and formal.


The Knaresborough Post is written in a formal font but doesn't stand out very much, although it does fit to the usual conventions of a newspaper.


The Ripon Gazette stands out as the white text stands out nicely against the green background. It looks formal, reliable and it is obvious it is an ultra local newspaper as it includes Ripon in the name.
