Mr. Gerry O'Regan:

I think that is a judgment. One can say there are the establishment media, in the sense that the media are in existence and are there, so to speak. Certainly, broad-selling newspapers, both here and in Britain, must reflect the concerns of a mass market. The demographic breakdown of the Irish Independentreadership more or less represents what is broadly described as middle Ireland, town and country people who are fairly well off, but a broad mass who are in the middle and some who are not well off at all. That has been the overall market position of the paper.
