national newspaper

Nationwide daily print

A national newspaper is a publication distributed across an entire country rather than serving a specific city or region.

The *New York Times* and *USA Today* are American national newspapers; *The Guardian* and *The Daily Mail* are British ones.

National papers typically cover politics, international affairs, and stories of broad interest, while local papers focus on community news.
