Martin Newland was appointed editor of The Daily Telegraph, a British broadsheet newspaper, in 2003, replacing Charles Moore. He has worked to preserve the Telegraph as it undergoes a change in proprietor, from Hollinger International to the Barclay brothers, owners of The Scotsman newspaper and The Business, a Sunday broadsheet.
It has recently been confirmed that Newland will remain as editor under the new owners, despite some claiming that he would be replaced by Dominic Lawson, editor of the Sunday Telegraph, and others such as Andrew Neil, publisher of The Scotsman and The Business.
Newland is opposed to introducing a compact (tabloid) version of the Daily Telegraph but is known to want to introduce some changes to the broadsheet.
