''The Southland Times'' is the regional daily paper for Southland, including Invercargill, and neighbouring parts of Otago, in New Zealand. ==History== ''The Southland Times'' was first established in 1862. The first edition was published on 12 November 1862 under the title of ''Invercargill Times''. The three founders were Gerard George Fitzgerald, John T. Downes, and Charles Reynolds. The name changed to ''The Southland Times'' in June 1864.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/cgi-bin/paperspast?a=d&cl=CL1.ST&essay=1 )〕 Initially, it was published two or three times a week until it became a daily paper in 1875. From 1869 until its purchase by the INL (Independent Newspapers Limited), it was owned by the Gilmour family. Robert Gilmour became a part owner in 1869-70, and then in 1879 became the sole owner of the paper. In 1972, digital computers and software, phototypesetters, and a Japanese APR photopolymer plate were installed at the paper, making the ''Times'' New Zealand's first fully computerised newspaper production system under the direction of Ian Gilmour. The paper changed hands again on 1 July 2003, when Independent Newspapers Limited was purchased by Fairfax Media.〔(''The Southland Times'': a division of Fairfax Media )〕 In May 2012 local printing of ''The Southland Times'' ceased with all printing now taking place from Allied Press in Dunedin. Smaller community papers that are usually printed once a week are now printed from Christchurch. 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 Southland Times」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
