The Evening Chronicle is a daily, evening newspaper produced in Newcastle upon Tyne, covering Tyne and Wear, southern Northumberland and northern County Durham. The Chronicle was founded in 1885 by Joseph Cowen. The Evening Chronicle is published by ncjMedia, a division of Trinity Mirror.
The Chronicle was always a broadsheet, from its inception right up until 8 October 1997, when it became a tabloid-sized paper. The Evening Chronicle newspaper concentrates on local news, human interest stories and sport particularly Newcastle United FC. Chronicle circulation increases on Thursdays with the publication of a jobs section.
Until 2007 the paper was published twice daily, with an evening edition on sale from the late afternoon.
