  Martin Newland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Martin Newland (born 1962) is a British journalist who was editor of The Daily Telegraph, a British broadsheet newspaper, from 2003-2005, replacing Charles Moore.
After the takeover, it was confirmed that Newland would remain as editor under the new owners, despite some reports 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 was opposed to introducing a compact (tabloid) version of the Daily Telegraph but was known to want to introduce some changes to the broadsheet.

 Observer | Telegraph's leader is quietly edited out
Martin Newland was absent from the Daily Telegraph's Canary Wharf office for much of last week, choosing to stay at home to contemplate his future following the appointment of John Bryant as editor-in-chief.
Newland spent the early part of the week negotiating directly with Telegraph chairman Aidan Barclay over his future.
Newland's future had been open to question for some time, as a succession of senior executives arrived at the Telegraph, many of them appointed directly by MacLennan.

 MediaGuardian.co.uk | Media | A very English coup
Martin Newland quit as editor of the Daily Telegraph on Friday after two years in the job.
Newland, assisted by lawyers, had chosen the time of his departure, and is said to have been rewarded by the Barclays with a large pay-off, approaching £750,000.
But while Newland was clearly distressed about this development, and is said to have taken legal advice on whether he could sue for constructive dismissal as a result, it was not the final straw.

 Observer | A real newshound, or just on a tight leash?
Newland seems to have gone down a storm in Canada, where former colleagues still speak of him with an affection bordering on the cultish.
Newland's close allegiance to his former boss Ken Whyte and his proprietor, along with the experience of running the aggressively neo-conservative Post, do not suggest an imminent paradigm shift on touchstone Tory issues.
Newland is the second Catholic in a row to edit the paper.

LONDON - Martin Newland, the 44-year-old editor of the Daily Telegraph, has resigned from his job on Friday, the paper reported.

 Business | Telegraph editor quits in frustration after ex-Mail man comes in
Rumours surrounded Newland's future after the appointment last week of the former Daily Mail man John Bryant as editor in chief of the Telegraph titles, and friends said Newland felt his departure was forced by the addition of another layer to the group's senior hierarchy.
Newland was not consulted on the appointment of Bryant.
Internal candidates to replace Newland include: Will Lewis, the paper's deputy and city editor, recently poached from the Sunday Times; Randall, who may be reluctant to swap his portfolio of jobs for a full time editing role; Heffer; and the Sunday Telegraph deputy editor Matthew D'Ancona.

And Newland's predecessor Charles Moore, who is still a columnist with the paper, also paid tribute, saying: "Martin did a tremendous job in very difficult circumstances.
Apparently Newland, who had been in the job for just over two years, saw this as a dilution of his authority as editor.
I think there's a lot of sympathy for Martin himself because lots of people have been brought in over his head, and in the end people thought he was in a fairly unsustainable position.

Martin Newland, the Telegraph's editor at the time, described the newspaper as Heffer's "natural journalistic home."[1]
He has written biographies of the pamphleteer Thomas Carlyle, the composer Ralph Vaughan Williams, and the politician Enoch Powell, whose concern with immigration is reflected in Heffer's own views on this subject.

Michael McCann (Martin) is a reclusive furniture-maker who lives in a cabin in the woods, with a collection of gold coins; years earlier, his life was shattered when he learned his wife was pregnant by another man. Nearby is the estate of the Kennedy-esque Newland family, which operates a granite quarry.
John Newland (Gabriel Byrne) is an aspiring politician with a dark secret--he's fathered an illegitimate daughter by an heroin addict.
Martin's portrayal of the protagonist as a bitter miser is, if anything, too persuasive--it easily overshadows the father-of-the-year persona he adopts in the second half.

The Colson quote in an interview with the FT shows that there was some concern among the Telegraph’s senior management over their editor’s apparent total focus on the paper’s editorial line and op ed pages, to the detriment of other parts of the paper.

 Creative Visions: (De)Constructing "The Beautiful" in Scorsese's The Age of Innocence
Yet this image is also proffered as an ironic symbol of Newland's 'perfect woman' – someone who he is able to mould and manipulate into 'any woman.' In Newland's case, this is the type of wife befitting 'his station' – someone who captures and reflects his own narcissistic image.
Crucially this sequence appears in the film just when Newland's dreams of breaking free from conventional society are articulated to the audience, which is then shattered by May's telegram informing him of her family's decision to advance their wedding date.
The mise-en-scene of The Age of Innocence does not simply connote a time before the revolution of modernity, nor does it register an obsession with period detail (although it is obsessive); on the contrary, it charts the mise-en-scene and theatricalisation of obsessive desire.

The fashion in newspapers might be to downsize, but the Daily Telegraph's Martin Newland is fiercely proud to be editing the last remaining non-financial broadsheet on Britain's newsstands.
Now that the Guardian has switched to the Berliner format, and the Independent and Times have been tabloid for almost two years, Mr Newland claims The Telegraph's broadsheet size is an asset, not a handicap.
Mr Newland will judge the revamp a success if it re-establishes the business section as a "must-read", leads to a "youthening" of the readership and keeps circulation above 900,000.
