Appendix 1: Sample Newspapers and Media Coverage Sample Newspapers The following newspapers are referred to throughout the monograph as the ‘sample newspapers’ that were collected over the six months data collection period (1 March 2010 to 31 August 2010). Andersonstown News Belfast Telegraph Irish News News Letter North Belfast News South Belfast News Sunday Life Sunday World, Northern Edition In selecting the newspapers, the ideological differences existing within Northern Ireland’s media have been considered and the selection is represen- tative (i.e. The Irish News aligns with the Nationalist viewpoint, whereas the Newsletter aligns with the Unionist viewpoint and the Belfast Telegraph appears not to favour or align with one specific cultural tradition or particular political ethos). © The Author(s) 2018 239 F.
