You know what, you're right, but I wouldn't bring myself to call the Telegraph a broadsheet simply based on the size of paper it prints on - although from a physical standpoint that is correct. The standard of journalism falls far short of that required for a broadsheet. They were highly supportive of The Wrong Side throughout WW2, and even now are agitating for violence against minorities and refugees. Anyone that buys it should be on some sort of a list.

>They [=The Daily Telegraph] were highly supportive of The Wrong Side throughout WW2 This is completely false. You're again thinking of the Mail (if you're not just making stuff up). But even the Mail wasn't pro-Nazi during WW2. I'm not sure what sort of weird ahistorical picture of WW2 you must have to think that a British newspaper would even have been allowed to publish pro-Nazi articles in the middle of the war! >and even now are agitating for violence against minorities and refugees. Where? You still seem to be thinking of headlines that have appeared in the Mail, not the Telegraph. It's also inaccurate to suggest the Telegraph is in any sense a tabloid. I'm left-leaning and do not much like the Telegraph as a newspaper. However, it was, for a long time, a serious and respected paper.
