Its main rival, the Mediahuis-owned Irish Independent, dominates national daily circulation with a centre-right editorial stance. The Sunday Independent captures the largest weekend readership, while the Cork-based Irish Examiner stands out as a prominent national daily headquartered outside the capital.
