The Story of the Peoples' Paper the Morning Star

Now make us grow - here's how...
Marketing a national daily newspaper in Britain is extremely expensive. The press lords spend huge sums on publicity and distribution, costly advertising campaigns, an army of circulation representatives, fleets of transport, and sale-or-return copies to get full availability at the thousands of newsagents.
The Morning Star has no such vast resources. But it does possess something the capitalist papers can never have, something without which it could not survive. It is the active involvement of its readers in promoting the paper they regard as their own.
The above quote is just some of the encouraging & stirring words which are to be found from this 50th anniversary booklet of the daily paper of the Left - the Morning Star.
Many things have changed since the Daily Worker fist came off the press in 1930, but the Morning Star remains the only national daily which supports worker's struggles, the trade union labour movement and increasingly the fight for an evironment-protecting economy.
