Blesk

Blesk is a daily tabloid newspaper published in Prague, the Czech Republic. Its name translates as flash.

History and profile

Blesk was first published on 14 April 1991. In 1992 it launched a weekly edition published on Sundays and its magazine, which is a comprehensive TV guide, was started in 1993. The paper is headquartered in Prague and was owned by Ringier until December 2013. Its owner is the Czech News Center (CNC) and its publisher is the Czech Print Center, a subsidiary of the CNC.

Its lay-out is modelled from the Swiss tabloid Blick and the German daily Bild which are also published by Ringier. Thus, Blesk is a tabloid newspaper and is neutral in its political and religious leaning.

The daily's sister paper is Aha!, another tabloid. Vladimír Mužík is among the former editor-in-chiefs of the daily who served until April 2011 when Pavel Šafr was appointed editor-in-chief of the paper. Šafr's tenure ended on 1 May 2013 and Radek Lain became the editor-in-chief of the paper.

You Know What I Like

by: Billy Squier

Somewhere in the distance---somewhere down the line
A trace of an illusion is etched upon my mind
A fool's infatuation poundin' in my brain
I fell into your face before I ever knew your name
You're no stranger--you know what I like...
You got me in a cross fire, drivin' in my car
You come on like a daydream, you move just like a star
Your lips are my persuasion, your love will be my cure
The path of least resistance is all I can endure
You're no stranger--you know what I like...
Miles of conversation...it's all between the lines
You're in the "A" rotation, you're with me all the time
Our love will go the distance--however near and far
In all of my confusion, I know just who you are
