News is this country's definitive national news section. Globe News readers rely on its content because they:
- Know that it contains the credible reporting they need to stay abreast of what's happening in the world and in our corner of it. Advertisers who appear in this section enjoy a "halo effect" of credibility by association.
- Look to The Globe to help them understand what's most important about world and national events. They take what News has to say seriously, and are more likely to absorb ad messages in a serious and receptive frame of mind.
- Trust our reporters and editors to supply thoughtful and expert analysis of the facts that matter--and of those facts' implications. Again, by association, this "trust factor" is conferred to advertisements that appear in News.
- Appreciate The Globe's varied points of view. News readers expect Globe editors, columnists and journalists to provide thoughtful, balanced and informed opinions about a broad range of topics--and while readers don't always agree with what they read on our pages, they appreciate the many perspectives The Globe gives voice to. This diversity of opinion forms the basis of our newspaper's conversation with readers, the essence of their conversations with others, and, often, the start of conversations between readers and advertisers.
News covers politics, public policy, public life and the reality of living--essential stories about events that occur around the world and in readers' own backyards--all given context by the expert analysis and perspectives of our columnists.

Canada's Best News Coverage on the Weekend
Saturday's Globe begins with our Front News section leading with a more reflective, "weekly" point of view. The Saturday cover story is complemented with extended multimedia on globeandmail.com.
Similarly, Saturday's Front News Essay begins in the paper but continues online, where we post a related poll and occasionally feature a Q&A session on its topic.
Readers find exciting features, formats and treatments in our Globe Weekend Edition.
No wonder so many advertisers want to be up-front: News is best-read.
