The Daily Telegraph is a British broadsheet newspaper, founded in 1855. It is
one of the few remaining daily newspapers printed in the Broadsheet

publications have converted to the smaller compact/tabloid or Berliner formats. Its sister paper,
The Sunday Telegraph, was founded in 1961. In November 2006, the
Telegraph was the highest selling British broadsheet, with a certified average daily circulation of 901,238. This compared with a circulation of 653,780 for

The Independent, and 382,393 for
The Guardian. According to a
MORI survey conducted in 2004, 61% of
