The Irish Independent is the flagship publication of Independent News & Media (INM) and Ireland's largest-selling daily newspaper. It habitually includes glossy magazines.
It is a sister of the broadsheet Sunday Independent. The Irish Independent is available on the Irish Newspaper Archives website up to 2004 you will only find "Black-And-White" microfilm pages but since 2005 the pages of the Irish Independent online in colour.
Since May 2012, the Irish Independent has been controlled by billionaire Denis O'Brien after O'Brien acquired a majority shareholding of parent company. In January 2008, at the same time as completing the purchase Today FM (Ireland's last national radio station independent of O'Brien and state broadcaster RTÉ), O'Brien increased his INM shareholding to become that company's second-biggest shareholder behind Tony O'Reilly, whom he ousted just over four years later. Traditionally a broadsheet newspaper, it introduced an additional compact size in 2004 and in December 2012 (following O'Brien's takeover) it was announced that the newspaper would become compact only.

New TV Network Channel called IRELAND'S INDEPENDENT NETWORK. The idea of this channel is to give a voice to the unheard, and cover topics rarely discussed on RTE such as, Fluoride, banking, the legal system and courts, repossessions, the freemen, the Freemasons, Fracking, oil and gas, turf cutting, shell to sea, and anything that the people want to discuss.

We hope to have other small independent filmmakers display their talents on the channel and any other ideas are welcome, but now we a serious platform for all voices to be heard. We ran our pilot show to AERTV a...
