The Belfast Newsletter is an independent, political, print and online magazine based in Belfast, Northern Ireland. It has been published since 1984, and is currently edited by Pat Finucane and Siobhan McDonagh.
The Belfast Newsletter is not owned by any one organisation or company, but is made up of a collective of volunteers who share in the responsibility for its publication. The magazine is funded by advertising and donations, and its editorial independence is protected by a voluntary Editors’ Code of Practice.
The Belfast Newsletter has been involved in many key moments in the history of Northern Ireland, including the peace process, the Good Friday Agreement, and the Troubles. It has always been a forum for open discussion and debate, and has played an important role in shaping the political landscape of Northern Ireland.
