Title
The full legal title of the newspaper is the "Belfast News Letter" though the word Belfast does not appear on the masthead any more. WGS-84 (GPS) Coordinates: 54. ...
History Founded in 1737, the News Letter was printed in Joy's Entry in Belfast, and was published by the original owner under the "sign of the Peacock" in Bridge Street. Originally published three times weekly, it became daily in 1855. The title is now located in the Boucher Road industrial estate in the south of Belfast.
According to the newspaper's owners:
| “ | The News Letter [can claim] the first genuine "world exclusive". The boat carrying the first copy to leave America of the Declaration of Independence, and bound for London, hit stormy waters off the north coast of Ireland. The boat sought refuge in Londonderry port and arrangements were made for the declaration to be sent on horseback to Belfast, where it would be met by another ship for delivery to King George III. Somehow, and in the best traditions of revelatory journalism, the News Letter editor of the day gained access to the priceless document and duly published it on the front page of the August 23, 1776 edition. Today there is a constant demand for copies of that famous and historical front page.[3] A copy of the 1823 William J. Stone reproduction of the Declaration of Independence The United States Declaration of Independence was an act of the Second Continental Congress, adopted on July 4, 1776, which declared that the Thirteen Colonies were independent of the Kingdom of Great Britain. ...

| ” | Before the partition of Ireland in 1922, the Newsletter was an all-Ireland newspaper distributed all over the island. Since then it has become a northern newspaper specifically with a predominantly unionist political outlook.
Politics The News Letter has historically been a hardline Unionist title. However when it was purchased by the Mirror Group in the 1990s Montgomery moved it to a more pro-peace process position. This was continued under the stewardship of the then editor, Geoff Martin. Martin was succeeded in 2003 by Nigel Wareing, formerly of the Guardian Media Group. Unionism, in the context of Ireland, is a belief in the continuation of the Act of Union 1800 (as amended by the Government of Ireland Act 1920) so that Northern Ireland (created by the 1920 Act) remains part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. ...
When discussing the history of Northern Ireland, the peace process is generally considered to cover the events leading up to the 1994 IRA ceasefire, the end of most of the violence of The Troubles, the Belfast (or Good Friday) Agreement, and subsequent political developments. ...
