2 PR Guidelines There are 2 main local newspapers in Co. Wexford. Both are produced weekly on a Tuesday - Monday. The deadline is 12 noon, but better to get information in on a Thursday or Friday. The Echo has better Arts Coverage and a circulation of approx 18,000. The People paper has a larger circulation of 38,000 - but not necessarily the Arts Coverage or expertise. If issuing a press release it is highly recommended to send draft to [email protected] to ensure that all information about the venue is correct.
