History

It began publication on 13 October 1874,[1] incorporating the Ipswich Express, which had been published since 13 August 1839.[2]

The East Anglian Daily Times merged news operations with the Ipswich Star in 2010, under the stewardship of chief executive of Archant Suffolk, Stuart McCreery. The editor is Brad Jones.[3]

The paper is published daily from Monday to Saturday in four regional editions: West Suffolk (around Bury St Edmunds), North Suffolk (around Lowestoft), East Suffolk (around Ipswich) and Essex (Colchester). In the period December 2010-June 2011, it had an average daily circulation of 29,932.[4] By December 2018, circulation had dropped to 12,589 [5]

The East Anglian Daily Times Company merged with Eastern Counties Newspapers in the 1960s; the group is now part of Archant.[6]
