About the publication
The Belfast Herald
Independent regional reporting for communities across Northern Ireland.
The Belfast Herald is an independent digital regional publication reporting across Northern Ireland. Coverage is organised around public-interest news, politics, courts, business, health, culture, lifestyle and sport.
Our purpose
We aim to report clearly, accurately and without allegiance to any political party or constitutional position. News reporting is kept distinct from comment; significant claims are attributed; and material errors are corrected openly.
The archive
The Belfast Herald archive brings together coverage of events from January 2020 onward and can be searched by subject, section and year.
Bylines and accountability
The Belfast Herald and its journalists may publish under professional pseudonyms where they choose. These bylines are editorial identities and are not presented as the writers' legal names. The Editor holds overall responsibility for editorial standards and complaints.
Ownership and publisher
The Belfast Herald is independently owned and published by Te Quiero Media, which trades as The Belfast Herald. It is not owned by a political party, public authority or other news publisher.
