Year of foundation/contributors

Anyone with any information regarding the year this newspaper was founded, if they could please add that to the infobox it would be appreciated.

Also, any additions to the contributor list would be great! NaLaochra 13:46, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Inaccurate sentence

"It has been cited on numerous occasions for producing inaccurate, exaggerated and sensationalist stories". I personally can't stand the Herald, but in the interests of truth I would point out that this sentence links to a website which merely denies a single story published in the Herald. It doesn't link to anything that proves that the Herald has a reputation for being relentlessly inaccurate and exaggerated. I am going to have to recast the sentence - relucantly, because like I say, I think that the paper is a miserable rag, but nevertheless we can't have reckless accusations like this in an actual WP article.

Merger with Metro

"On 10 October 2005, a free version of the Evening Herald, published in the mornings and entitled Herald AM, began distribution, as a defensive measure against the Daily Mail and General Trust-owned Metro, launched on the same date. It joined with another morning freesheet Metro to become the Metro Herald."

Surely it joined with the SAME Metro newspaper (owned by the DM&GT) to become the Metro Herald? There definitely were not two freesheets called Metro. Can anyone confirm and correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.46.232.4 (talk) 22:12, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
