The Telegraph

What do we expect from a Newspaper? What do we want from a Newspaper? Obviously the answers to these questions will be very personal. Most types of Newspapers will give us the News Headlines probably with a Left or Rightwing slant but the main difference between newspapers will be the quality of the articles inside the front covers . If you want salacious, titillating gossip then you must go for the comic variety, and this is what many of us want in our daily read. Some of these articles can be quite entertaining, but this is something we must remember that they are basically written to entertain the reader and NOT to inform! If on the other ...  Read the complete review

"Police corruption in Britain is now so widespread it may have reached levels which normally only occur in unstable Third World countries, according to a confidential document obtained by The Telegraph...The document is the minutes of a meeting organised by the National Criminal Intelligence Service." Daily Telegraph 27/9/98. Well done The Telegraph for telling us about corrupt coppers! Is that why Damilola died?

The Daily Telegraph is a broad-sheet newspaper. The stories tend to revolve around political and world news, with little coverage of celebrity gossip, so it's right up my street! The paper is responsible for leaking the news about government expenses claims of late, and has been filled with details about that. Regular writers tend to be upper or middle class, and some of the articles are very snobby, but there are also other writers (such as Graham Norton) who keep things down to the ground.

They are only for old codgers, and people who work in the city to look interested in whilst commuting to the office. This is the general impression that I had regarding broadsheet newspapers, and the people that read them. That was until I started to read them myself. There are several to choose from including the Times, Observer, Independent and my choice the Telegraph. In my opinion it is not the content of these broadsheet newspapers that give them a smaller reading than that of your conventional tabloid, it’s the shear size of the damn thing, that does it for me. I’m sure that the women will be shouting that size does matter, but in the ...  Read the complete review
