Belfast News Letter : ウィキペディア英語版
The News Letter

''The News Letter'' is one of Northern Ireland's main daily newspapers, published Monday to Saturday. It is the oldest English language general daily newspaper still in publication, having first been printed in 1737.〔(Research guide: Irish news & newspapers ), Boston College, 13 December 2004, accessed 25 September 2006〕〔Ruth Johnston, (Your place and mine: ''Belfast News Letter'' ), BBC, accessed 25 September 2006〕
The newspaper's editorial stance and readership, while originally republican,〔A Deeper Silence: The Hidden Origins of the United Irishmen, A. T. Q. Stewart, The Blackstaff Press, 1998, ISBN 0-85640-642-2 pg. 134-164〕 is now strongly unionist. Its primary competitors are the ''Belfast Telegraph'' and the ''Irish News''. The ''News Letter'' has changed hands several times since the mid-1990s, and since 2005 is owned by the Johnston Press holding company Johnston Publishing (NI). The full legal title of the newspaper is the ''Belfast News Letter'', although the word Belfast does not appear on the masthead any more.〔(British Newspapers Online )〕
==History==

Founded in 1737, the ''Belfast News Letter'' was printed in Joy's Entry in Belfast. The Joys were a family of Huguenot descent who added much to eighteenth-century Belfast, noted for their compiling materials for its history. Francis Joy, who founded the paper, had come to Belfast early in the century from the County Antrim village of Killead. In Belfast, he married the daughter of the town sovereign, and set up a practice as an attorney. In 1737, he obtained a small printing-press which was in settlement of a debt, and used it to publish the town’s first newspaper at the sign of ‘The Peacock’ in Bridge Street. The family later bought a paper mill in Ballymena, and were able to produce enough paper not only for their own publication but for the whole province of Ulster.〔The Life and Times of Mary Ann McCracken, 1770-1866: a Belfast Panorama, Mary McNeill, The Blackstaff Press, rpt 1988〕〔A Deeper Silence: The Hidden Origins of the United Irishmen, A. T. Q. Stewart, The Blackstaff Press, 1998, ISBN 0-85640-642-2〕
Originally published three times weekly, it became daily in 1855. The title is now located in the Boucher Road industrial estate in the south of Belfast. Before the partition of Ireland in 1922, the ''News Letter'' was distributed island-wide.
The ''Belfast News Letter'' published news of the American Declaration of Independence in its 23 August 1776 edition. However the ''London Chronicle'' was the first to print the Declaration in full in its 15–17 August 1776 edition.〔(The Declaration of Independence - A Global History ), ''Google Books'', accessed 6 March 2009〕
Historical copies of the ''Belfast News Letter'', dating back to 1828, are available to search and view in digitised form at The British Newspaper Archive. 〔(Digitised copies of the ''Belfast News Letter'' )〕
