History

The "Herald AM" was founded in September 2005 by Independent News & Media. It was launched as a response to the introduction of the Associated Newspapers and Metro International owned Metro newspaper. The Metro is owned in part by the British Daily Mail and carries stories and editorial from the London edition of its sister Metro paper.

The Herald AM newspaper was originally intended to be called "Herald Metro". However, legal action from Metro International led to it being renamed "Herald AM" prior to launch. The newspaper also initially carried the words "metro edition" as part of its masthead but dropped this tag during a redesign in April 2006.

Content

The newspaper re-uses some content from previous editions of the "Evening Herald" and "Irish Independent".Fact|date=April 2008
