The Colour Of The Day
Near Black, Deep Orange and Vibrant Red
A reduced set: The Daily Telegraph and Daily Express were not available, so this day is measured from 3 papers rather than 5.
Three colours drawn from the front pages of 3 national newspapers published on Saturday, 9 May 2026: near black, deep orange and vibrant red. The dominant shade held 26 per cent of all chromatic ink measured across the set.
