We are pleased to announce the Irish Examiner as one of the sponsors for this year’s SMEDIAS. The Irish Examiner is sponsoring the category- Journalist of the Year. Click here for submission guidelines.
The Irish Examiner sets the agenda on local and national issues from the big stories of the day to local courts, and through their unrivalled sports coverage. Their reporters chase, harry, asking questions and pushing for answers to bring their readers the information that matters.
The Irish Examiner’s is a different and distinct voice in the national discourse, highlighting stories and perspectives not found elsewhere. They are extremely proud of their Cork and Munster roots but write about issues affecting all Irish people every day.
The Irish Examiner was first published on August 30, 1841 – making it the country’s oldest daily newspaper. Proprietor and editor John Francis Maguire used the then Cork Examiner as a platform to support Catholic emancipation and ‘The Liberator’ Daniel O’Connell’s campaign to secure tenants’ rights – realising that principled journalism can be a powerful force for great good.As the only national title based in the south of the country, its home in Cork frequently allowed it exclusive access to world news in the late 19th and 20th centuries.
