The Guardian has won the Plain English Campaign national newspaper of the year award for the second year running.
The judges said: “The pages are well designed and laid out, with good use of colour. On the whole, the language used is clear and accessible.”
Best regional newspaper is the Newcastle Evening Chronicle.
The judges said it: “has a wide range of well-written local news stories, good entertainment and sport coverage, and clear regional ‘what's on' listings. The tabloid format has an uncluttered layout, with striking headings and photography that draw the reader's attention.”
