Veteran media mogul’s step back may lead to reduced interest in News Corp's newspaper titles, says former Irish edition editor

At one stage the Irish News Corp titles, as well as a number of other newspapers, were printed in a plant in Kells, Co Meath, but in August 2021 it was announced that printing was to be outsourced.

“There will be a long term question over all newspapers in the Murdoch empire once Rupert leaves for good, because Lachlan doesn’t have the same commitment, and they are a much more difficult proposition,” he said.

The Sunday Times Ireland edition at one stage accounted for about 12 per cent of overall sales of the Sunday Times, but that fell with the collapse of newspaper sales generally. The latest editor of the Irish edition, Nóirín Hegarty,Storyful, which was founded by former RTÉ journalist Mark Little in 2010, was bought by News Corp in 2013 in a deal valued at €18 million.

In 2016, News Corp bought the Wireless radio group in Belfast, owner of the London-based radio station, TalkSport, as well as FM104 and Q102 in Dublin, LMFM in Louth and Meath, Cork’s 96FM and C103, Live95FM in Limerick, and U105.8FM in Belfast.
