Daily Mail - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Mail was originally a broadsheet, but switched to its current tabloid format on 3 May 1971, on the 75th anniversary of its founding (on this date it also absorbed the Daily Sketch, which had previously been published as a tabloid by the same company). |
 | | As of 2005 the publisher of the Mail, the Daily Mail and General Trust, is a FTSE 100 company and the paper has a circulation of more than two million, the second largest circulation of any English language daily newspaper, and the twelfth highest of any newspaper. |
 | | The stereotypical Daily Mail reader is characterised as an insular, homophobic, aspiring middle-class conservative who lacks the intelligence to read the broadsheet equivalent the Daily Telegraph, and is stuck in the past. |
