[edit] Complete Rewrite

I've totally rewritten this article, and hopefully it will be well-received. I can see that some people have already started editing it, which is great. Chaz! 21:26, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ownership of The Herald

I noticed that the word "owned" was changed to "managed" in the first paragraph, with reference to the Corporation. That's fine, but does someone know who actually owns the paper? Chaz! 06:49, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] NPOV

Most prominent publication is clear and definite POV. That is just at a glance. Any statement like that needs to be backed with sources or it should be immediately removed.IvoShandor 04:41, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
