The Situation
|
Broadsheet formats have mainly historical reasons :
- Broadsheet developed in the 18th century so publishers could avoid paying per-pages taxes
- Belgium: unique format to fit inside postman's bag
- During the war, numbers of pages were rationed
In addition, increased competition from
- Advertising Paper
- Free Sheets
- Metro
- Others
