TheCork.ie ‘Your Online News & Entertainment from Cork, Ireland’ was established in 2010.
Our website is updated daily by our team of writers who grew up locally. Our readership is local, and global.
We welcome content
We welcome fresh content, so if you are a PR firm, Politician, Campaign group, or anyone with news, please add news@TheCork.ie to your email distribution list. If you are paying a PR agent but don’t see your content here, you can instruct them to add news@TheCork.ie to their distribution list, because you will want your good news in as many outlets as possible.
Our team of Journalists craft around 1,700 news stories every year. Our website is constantly fresh and has the benefit of an ongoing archive of older news stories, increasing our online footprint.
Corrections / Deletions
If you read wording that you believe should be corrected, or deleted, we encourage you to contact us directly so that we can take care of matters quickly and with a minimum of fuss: news@TheCork.ie
No Paywall
Many News & Entertainment websites are now behind ‘paywalls’ where web visitors can only read the first few paragraphs of articles before having to pay or log in. We are please to say there is no paywall nor IP filtering on our website.
Advertising
Commercial enquiries are welcome here.
Social media
Independence
We believe in an independent media. We are not part of any corporate media group. We are not in receipt of any state funding. Whereas some other news outlets in Ireland are paid by Coimisiún na Meán, which is Ireland’s state funded media regulator, under the “Local Democracy Scheme” or “Courts Reporting Scheme”.
Entertainment & Satirical News / Parody
The site also contains Entertainment content which is subjective by its very nature. Some articles are clearly labelled as Satirical News and Parody and are to be read in jest, much like an April Fools story. There is a long history in the news media of Satire and Parody, which is always clearly labelled here. If you feel any article has gone too far, then email editor tom@TheCork.ie in confidence. Your edit suggestion will be considered, as it is not our intention to upset. All content is meant in good jest.
