The Northern Echo Totally Explained

Everything about The Northern Echo totally explained

The Northern Echo is a daily regional newspaper serving the north-east of England. The paper is based in Priestgate, Darlington. Its first edition was published on January 1 1870. The paper was started by John Hyslop Bell with the backing of the Pease family as a liberal alternative to existing local papers.
Today, The Northern Echo is owned by Newsquest (Yorkshire and North East) Ltd. According to the Audit Bureau of Circulations during the second half of 2006, The Northern Echo sold on average approximately 51,000 copies each day. It has five editions, Teesside, North Yorkshire, North Durham, South-West Durham and Darlington.
Although traditionally a broadsheet, since January 14 2006, the Saturday edition of the paper has been produced in a tabloid format. The move was testing the water for a complete change over, following in the steps of a number of other British broadsheets, including The Times, The Independent, and The Guardian that had recently ditched the broadsheet format in favour of smaller page sizes. After a positive response and increased sales of the compact Saturday edition, on February 26 2007, the newspaper converted completely to a tabloid format. The Northern Echo has a number of sister publications, including the weekly Darlington & Stockton Times and the free Advertiser series.
