Founded in 1783, The Herald is Scotland’s leading quality daily newspaper. As a respected and trusted ‘paper of record’, it is the preferred choice of Scotland’s professional classes for its coverage of the main Scottish, national and international news agenda and its comment and analysis on the major issues of the day. It is the daily newspaper most widely read by MSPs at Holyrood.
Among the topics that most engage our readers are politics, education, business, health, the arts, sports and homes, delivered alongside our informed comment and opinion.

Every day, The Herald newspaper is read by more than 150,000 adults, 80% of which fall into the affluent ABC1 social category. But the strengths of The Herald are not restricted to the print product. The heraldscotland web site boasts one of Scotland’s largest online audiences, reaching half a million adults every month.
Recently the site underwent a revamp with the introduction of more contributors, improved layout, a new politics section. We also introduced subscription, which at £2.99 for four weeks amounts to just 11p a day. Additionally, The Herald newspaper is available world-wide in the form of a digital edition. This allows a significant expatriate audience to view the newspaper in it is entirety, regardless of location. Other developments are in the pipeline.
