Rival newspapers target Irish town

The Irish town of Dun Laoghaire - a Dublin suburb - has had no local paper for more than 100 years. Now it has two. Two months ago the weekly Dun Laoghaire Express was launched by Chris Macey. It is part paid-for and part free. Last week saw the launch of a rival, the Dun Laoghaire Gazette, a weekly freesheet from the Gazette group stable, in which the Irish Times has a 43.8% stake. Both are targeting a population of about 200,000. (Via Sunday Business Post)
