The Herald AM is a free daily newspaper distributed at train stations, bus stops, and LUAS stations in Dublin. Herald AM is one of two free newspapers distributed to commuters in Dublin from Monday to Friday. It is owned by the Irish Independent News and Media Group in Dublin, and has a daily readership of around 85,000.[citation needed]
[edit] History
The Herald AM was founded in September 2005 by Independent News & Media. It was launched as a response to the introduction of the Associated Newspapers and Metro International owned Metro newspaper. The Metro is owned in part by the British Daily Mail and carries stories and editorial from the London edition of its sister Metro paper.
The Herald AM newspaper was originally intended to be called Herald Metro. However, legal action from Metro International led to it being renamed "Herald AM" prior to launch. The newspaper also initially carried the words "metro edition" as part of its masthead but dropped this tag during a redesign in April 2006.
[edit] Content
The newspaper re-uses some content from previous editions of the Evening Herald and "Irish Independent".[citation needed]
