Behind the Byline

The Irish Examiner is renowned for its agenda-setting journalism, investigative reporting, and legendary sports coverage. Whether reporting from the corridors of power, the hallowed turf of the nation’s pitches or a local community hall, the Irish Examiner brings a different perspective to the stories that matter to Irish people today. Behind this award-winning newspaper and website is a team of people from different disciplines working together to bring readers the information they need in whatever format they want to read it. But what makes the news and why? And how does it all come together? Meet members of the Irish Examiner team to find out.
