Ben Lowry Steps Down After 20 Years | Belfast News

After 20 years with the News Letter — including two decades as editor — Ben Lowry is stepping down, calling it a joy to lead the world’s oldest English-language daily. He joined in 2007 from the Belfast Telegraph and took over as editor in 2021 after serving as interim. The paper, founded in 1737, remains a vital voice amid turbulent times for unionism. Ownership recently shifted from JPI Media to National World in 2021, then to Media Concierge Group (now Iconic Media Group) for £65.1 million last year. Lowry leaves with pride, wishing the publication well as it continues its historic legacy. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
