Initially considered gimmicky and insubstantial, it gradually developed a reputation for higher quality while increasing its circulation and advertising revenues at a time when few papers were experiencing growth. The features that originally set it apart
abundant colourful Graphics, very brief stories, and a concentration on Sports and celebrity
have influenced Other newspapers.
