The Northern Advocate
Seven days a week in print and online we inform, entertain and challenge our readers. We break Northland’s news first. In 2014 we were adjudged the country’s best regional newspaper. We were “rowdy” and “passionate”, and firmly ensconced in our beautiful region, the judges said.
Whether it’s telling our region’s stories, or reaching potential clients for our advertisers, we work hard to give our readers and advertisers little choice but to connect with our paper, and with our region.”
Craig Cooper, Editor, The Northern Advocate
