 There are millions of newspapers out there, and each one has its special header font - what newspaper are you thinking of?
Have you got a scanned picture of the font?

 Hello, I'd like to know the name of this font. It's quite popular in German or Polish newspapers.

Yes, Koeiekat, I was talking about printed papers, willing to talk about newspaper layout and all that kind of stuff.
I just don't understand how people are migrating to the digital version of daily newspapers, as for that; I can't read them, they are much worse in design as their paper counterparts and... well, you can't show your broadsheet having breakfast. Is reading a laptop – even a 17" Mac – as sexy? Don't think so.

Newspapers rarely use standard available fonts so the chance to find this one is close to nil. Yet, if you want to imitate it give the Finalia DT Condensed Demi a shot ...

Hi,
First there was no political diskussion to jump in. There was only the short explanation opposit backgrounds of the two newspapers.
Second there was no diskussion about open source vs commercial fonts. The comment was about the association of the term Wirtschaftswunder (rise of the german economics after WW II in the 1950th and 1960th) to typefaces. The typeface TAZ looks much to modern and 21th century. It don't has the needed old fashion attitude.
Third the Typeface Pilsen Plakat was a remake of a printed typeface (czech beer 1930th?) never available as a computer-font. There are a lot of typefaces like this never published from the great vendors. But a few entusiast rebuild them just for fun. A lot of typefaces didn't made it from the hot type to the computer era.
bye bye

I'd say, buying fonts is fun. I've recently bought a good set of fonts I needed – not really, I'm just a fontaholic and desperate for that retro feeling so I try to sell that kind of atmosphere to my clients – from a foundry which I shall not name in honour to the Italian law against free advertising.
Not just downloaded them all in a second but even received a cd for every set with a LOVELY design on each cover, based on the theme, the very atmosphere in which the designer(s) found the inspiration to draw them. Just great.
Still, if you're an amateur or a freelance in his/her early years of work it can be frustrating to look at the shiny windows of the fontshops and stick to the free fonts - although some of them are really great.
See, I'm a graphic designer and I worked ten years in daily newspapers and publishing houses. Since 2005 I work on my own, caring my clients and looking for new ones. I've recently bought a new, large house in the countryside – I should move there by early December – and haven't got so much money at the moment.
I definitely stare, drooling, at the great, great set – oh, fuck the Italian law, we Italians are all outlaws, aren't we? – named «Luxury» from House Industries and – good Lord – I have to wait because 250$ is approximately the price for a cheap wardrobe (closet for the yankees, says my dictionary) I truly need. As I have to wait to buy a car larger than the one I own to drive me along the 60 kilometres that will hide me and my dogs from the large mass of people I'm fleeing from and nontheless I still work with. And none of us would steal a car, right?
