Birmingham Post
The Birmingham Post is a weekly tabloid newspaper published in Birmingham and sold widely throughout the West Midlands.
It was originally published as the Daily Post in 1857. It’s fairly middle-of-the-road politically.
In the late 1980s it made a bid to break into greater national prominence in much the same way as The Guardian had done some thirty years earlier, by printing the word “Birmingham” in smaller type on its masthead. However, the idea of calling it simply “The Post” never really caught on.
It’s published by BPM Media (part of the Trinity Mirror group), who also publish the Birmingham Mail and the Sunday Mercury.
After 150 years as a broadsheet, it switched to tabloid format in 2008.
On 20 October 2009 Trinity Mirror announced that the Post would switch to weekly publication on Thursdays from 12 November, following a steady decline in sales in recent years, with the Mail taking its place as the city’s daily newspaper.
