Interessante este artigo da Slate sobre as convulsões no muito conservador Daily Telegraph.
Um excerto:
"As Max Hastings, who edited the Daily Telegraph from 1986 to 1995, noted in his memoirs, what the Telegraph reader wants from his newspaper is a narcotic experience. "[O]ther titles are in the business of telling people each morning that the world is a quite different place from what it was yesterday," wrote Hastings. "The DT is much more in the business of reassurance, of providing confirmation each morning for our readers that their world is looking pretty safe and stable." Old England will get along just fine, and please pass the marmalade".
