Summary:
Ireland's "only independent newspaper," the Irish Times provides comprehensive news reporting, photos, advertisements, classified ads, obituaries, cartoons, and more, spanning nearly 150 years of modern Irish history beginning with 1859. The Weekly Irish Times' coverage includes The Times Pictorial.
Since its inception, The Irish Times has evolved from reflecting the views of its founder-- in its first issue it described itself as a 'new conservative daily paper'-- to becoming a truly politically- and commercially-independent newspaper. The Irish Times has earned an international reputation as Ireland's quality daily newspaper. News reporting from throughout Ireland is accompanied by reports from a comprehensive network of foreign correspondents, as well as sports and business coverage, features and arts sections, lifestyle, jobs and property. Each issue contains well-informed background analysis and assessment of the events of the day, and diversity of debate in the daily opinion columns. The Weekly Irish Times coverage, which is available digitally for the first time, will include The Irish Times pictorial section.
