EspañolTHE BELFAST TELEGRAPH
(Redirected from Belfast Telegraph)
'''The Belfast Telegraph''' is a daily evening newspaper published in Belfast, Northern Ireland by Independent News and Media.
It was first published as the ''Belfast Evening Telegraph'' on 1 September 1870 by brothers William and George Baird. Its first edition cost half a penny and ran to four pages covering the Franco-Prussian war and local news.
Unlike its London-based stablemate ''The Independent'', the ''Belfast Telegraph'' is conservative in outlook. In the context of Northern Irish politics, the Belfast Telegraph tries to attract readers from across the community, though it does appear to be moderate unionist in outlook.
Its competitors are the ''News Letter'' and the ''Irish News''.
According to the Audit Bureau of Circulations, the paper had an average daily circulation of 94,540 between June 2004 and January 2005. It is the largest Northern Irish newspaper by some distance, despite falling sales.
The morning "Compact Edition", launched in March 2005, has struggled to replicate the evening newspaper's success. Its editorial content is more tabloid orientated, with a greater entertainment story count than the evening paper. The evening edition of the newspaper was originally called the "Sixth Late", and "Sixth Late ''Tele''" was a familiar cry made by vendors in Belfast City Centre in the past.
The Belfast Telegraph is the primary title of the Belfast Telegraph Group, responsible for printing:
