Paper Monitor

13:45 UK time, Wednesday, 3 October 2012

A service highlighting the riches of the daily press.

It's day three of papers misdelivery at Monitor Towers. This is a very trying time.

Today we'll focus on the Guardian, a copy of which was pilferable from a nearby office. It was pristine in fact. Untouched.

They go massive on Ed Miliband's speech to the Labour Party conference. Polly Toynbee gets a column on the front page, which is great real estate for a columnist.

Columnists are used to occupying that weird space after all the news but before the letters page. It's a part of the paper that hasn't been reached by the point that people are asleep in their cornflakes.

Anyway, Toynbee uses the phrase "breathtaking bravura" about Miliband. It's quite a phrase. We translate that as meaning "better than good".

As is par for the course in the Guardian, inside the paper there is the usual slew of super-straight headlines:

"Health reforms to be rolled back under Labour government"

Nom nom.

Inside, there are three pages on the Labour conference.

Over to G2 and there's an intensely Guardian-y lead feature. It's about Hugo Chavez. There's no doubt for some readers that's likely to bring on a cornflakes pillow moment but for others it's a rich mixture of colour and analysis.

The shade is offset by the light of a Q&A with Donald Trump.

There's the light of the Shortcuts mini-features section. But there's also the shade of a piece about Eric Hobsbawm.

All about the light and shade.
