''The New Zealand Herald'' is a daily newspaper published in Auckland, New Zealand, owned by New Zealand Media and Entertainment. It has the largest newspaper circulation of all newspapers in New Zealand, peaking at over 200,000 copies in 2006, although circulation of the daily ''Herald'' had declined to 144,157 copies on average by December 2014.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ABC statistics )〕 Its main circulation area is the Auckland region. It is also delivered to much of the north of the North Island including Northland, Waikato and King Country.〔 == History == ''The New Zealand Herald'' was founded by William Chisholm Wilson, and first published on 13 November 1863. Wilson had been a partner with John Williamson in the ''New Zealander'', but left to start a rival daily newspaper as he saw a business opportunity with Auckland’s rapidly growing population.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Daily Southern Cross )〕 He had also split with Williamson because Wilson supported the war against the Māori (which the ''Herald'' termed "the native rebellion") while Williamson opposed it.〔 The ''Herald'' also promoted a more constructive relationship between the North and South Islands. After the ''New Zealander'' closed in 1866 ''The Daily Southern Cross'' provided competition, particularly after Julius Vogel took a majority shareholding in 1868. ''The Daily Southern Cross'' was first published in 1843 by William Brown as ''The Southern Cross'' and had been a daily since 1862.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Daily Southern Cross )〕 Vogel sold out of the paper in 1873 and Alfred Horton bought it in 1876. In 1876 the Wilson family and Horton joined in partnership and ''The New Zealand Herald'' absorbed ''The Daily Southern Cross''.〔 In 1879 the United Press Association was formed so that the main daily papers could share news stories. The organisation became the New Zealand Press Association in 1942.〔Mark Derby. 'Newspapers - Growth and expansion, 1860–1900', ''Te Ara - the Encyclopedia of New Zealand'', updated 13-Aug-14 URL: http://www.TeAra.govt.nz/en/newspapers/page-2〕 In 1892, the ''New Zealand Herald'', ''Otago Daily Times'', and ''Press'' agreed to share the costs of a London correspondent and advertising salesman.〔 The New Zealand Press Association closed in 2011. The Wilson and Horton families were both represented in the company, known as Wilson & Horton, until 1996 when Tony O'Reilly's Independent News & Media Group of Dublin purchased the Horton family's interest in the company. ''The Herald'' is now owned by New Zealand Media and Entertainment. That company is owned by Sydney-based APN News & Media and the Radio Network, owned by the Australian Radio Network. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The New Zealand Herald」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
