The Examiner (Launceston) Map

The Examiner is one of the state’s most iconic brands having serviced the area since 1842. The oldest newspaper in the state, and the third oldest in the country, we have a proud history of being the trusted voice of the community.

Our loyal readers look to The Examiner to provide high quality news coverage seven days a week and our print readership remains strong while our digital readership grows. As the most trusted source of news for many northern and north west Tasmanians, our focus remains firmly on our readers and our community.

The Examiner’s reach is unrivaled by any other media organisation in our market. With a large and growing suite of print and digital marketing services, you can trust The Examiner to bring your voice to our audience.

Tasmania’s second largest city, Launceston, is called the ‘Garden City’ due to its many parklands. It has the charm and pace of a regional centre

but with the facilities of a larger city. One of Tasmania’s significant wine-producing regions is emerging to the south of the city. Key industries are education and training, manufacturing, accommodation and food production – reflecting the importance of the tourism industry and public service.

This publication uses a T84 Modular layout.
