Brit help needed

resonantNeeded: Some discussion on the personalities of British news/entertainment publications.
You know how the New York Times is a middle-aged, well-educated white guy in a suit who votes Democrat, and the New Yorker is the same guy only he's gay and probably Jewish, and the Wall Street Journal is the same guy only his suit's more expensive and he votes republican?
And Ladies Home Journal is a frumpy middle-aged woman with a teddy bear embroidered on her sweatshirt, sniffling over a sad story of a cute preschooler overcoming some tragic diseease?
Whereas Cosmopolitan is a woman poured into clothes seven years too young for her (which is fine, because she claims to be seven years younger than she is), cackling over the tale of some other woman who slept with her boss until he promoted her, then took dramatic and hideous revenge on his wife for calling her a bitch at the company Christmas party?
What I need is that kind of profile on some British publications. Newspapers, magazines. High-profile TV and radio shows would be fine, too.
(This is for a HP story, in case you're wondering.)
