End of an era for Irish News

Good Morning Ulster

Available for over a year

It's a big move, physically and symbolically for the Irish News. The iconic listed building on Donegall Street has been home to Northern Ireland's best selling newspaper for almost 120 years. Tears were shed as staff packed up their belongings and left for the last time on Thursday. It comes as newspapers struggle for readership with a new focus on the digital age. The paper is moving to a state of the art building at Fountain Centre in Belfast after its Donegall Street premises was sold to Ulster University. It heralds the end of an era and some fond memories for staff who've been working there for decades. Helen Jones reports.
