History
The first edition of Northside People hit the streets in May 1987. The paper which was founded by Robin Webb divided in 1995 into east and west editions. Originally published on a bi-weekly basis, by the mid 1990s both editions were printed on a weekly basis. Around this time the Dublin People acquired the South News title, which was converted to Southside People. Journalists who have worked for the Dublin People group include writer and broadcaster Sean Moncrieff, playwright and novelist Lorcan Roche, Sinead Crowley, Joe Lowrey, Tom Hayes, Joe Humphries, Fiona Gartland, Nicola Tallent, Jack Gleeson, Aidan Kelly, Tony McCullagh, Ken Finlay, Pat O'Rourke, Neil Fetherston, Siobhan Maguire, Aoibhinn Twomey, Geraldine Comiskey, Sabra Aslam, Jo Anne Fox, Sean Murphy, Niall Bourke, Jamie Deasy, Warren Swords, Keith Falkiner, Michael Moloney, Melanie Finn, Brian Whelan and Kevin Jenkinson. Managing directors of the Dublin People groups are Ray O'Neill and Tony McCullagh.
