News Letter

The News Letter is a daily tabloid paper published on Mondays to Saturdays in Belfast since 1737 and thus claims to be the world’s oldest English-language newspaper still in print (although originally it appeared three times a week; it didn’t become a daily until 1855). It’s sold widely throughout Northern Ireland.

It’s published by Morton Newspapers and has been owned by the UK-wide group of regional and local newspapers Johnston Press since 2005.

Originally Nationalist, it’s now strongly Unionist and conservative politically.

Legally, it’s still registered under its original title of the Belfast News Letter, but the word “Belfast” was dropped along the way.
