Kerryman moves to ‘compact format’

THE Kerryman, which has been published in broadsheet format for 105 years, will from next week, along with its sister paper The Corkman, be in "compact format", its readers have been told in the current edition.

In a front-page editorial, editor Declan Malone said while the Tralee town edition (which comes out a day later than the county editions) had been published in compact format since 2006, “the change to compact for the county edition of the paper marks the end of one era and the start of another for the Kerryman.”

The Kerryman is owned by the Independent group.
