Jurgen Habermas proposed the theory of the public sphere. This theory suggests a free space where access to relevant information affecting the public good is widely available, , where discussion is free of domination and where all those participating on public debates do so in an equal basis”.

Both papers support Habermase’s theory due to the wide range of news information that serve the public interest. This allows all generations to interact with certain aspects of the news information and freely discuss the information. In relation to The i and The daily mail both papers support 2 different political parties. For example, Th I is more Liberal they do not openly support a particular party. The paper itself is run by free press and runs more as a public watch dog which regulates free press. Where as The daily mail is right wing they support the conservatives and is not as central as The I.
