In recent years, The Globe and Mail
has made changes to its format and layout, such as the introduction of
colour photographs, a separate tabloid book-review section and the
creation of the Review section on arts, entertainment and culture.
Although the paper is sold throughout Canada and has long called itself
"Canada's National Newspaper", The Globe and Mail also serves as a
Toronto metropolitan paper, publishing several special sections in its
Toronto edition that are not included in the national edition.
As a result, it is sometimes ridiculed for
being too focused on the Greater Toronto Area, part of a wider humorous
portrayal of Torontonians being blind to the greater concerns of the
nation. (A similar criticism is sometimes applied to The New York
Times). Critics sometimes refer to the paper as the Toronto Globe and
Mail or Toronto's National Newspaper. Recently, in an effort to gain
market share in Vancouver, The Globe and Mail began publishing a
three-page section of British Columbia news in the B.C. edition of its
paper. |
