The Sunday Correspondent was a shortlived British weekly national broadsheet newspaper. Launched on September 17, 1989, it ceased publication on November 25, 1990. It was edited by Peter Cole.
On launching, the paper billed itself as the first new quality Sunday title for 28 years (since the launch of The Sunday Telegraph in 1961). By the time it folded just over a year later, it was attempting to position itself as Britain's first quality tabloid. Underfunding, a perceived lack of glamour and personality, and the launch of The Independent on Sunday in January 1990 were all likely factors in its demise. The Guardian journalist Jonathan Freedland and art critic Andrew Graham Dixon started their national careers on the title.
