About Us

Titanic News is Ireland's boldest independent digital newsroom — delivering premium journalism with a distinctly Irish perspective, inspired by the industrial spirit of Belfast, the city that built the world's most famous ship.

Our Mission

We believe the people of Ireland deserve a news source that puts them first. Titanic News delivers original, in-depth coverage of the stories that matter most across Belfast, Northern Ireland, the Republic, and the Irish diaspora worldwide. From Stormont to the Dáil, from the GAA pitch to the tech sector, from community heroes to global Irish achievers — we cover what the big outlets overlook.

Belfast Heritage

Our name and identity are rooted in Belfast's proud industrial heritage. The Harland & Wolff cranes — Samson and Goliath — that still stand over the city's skyline inspire our signature yellow, a colour that runs through everything we do. Just as those cranes represent ambition and craftsmanship, Titanic News aims to build something monumental in Irish digital journalism.

Our Editorial Process

Every story published on Titanic News goes through a rigorous editorial pipeline. Our team monitors breaking developments from trusted sources across Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland, and the wider Irish diaspora, then researches, verifies, and writes each article with original analysis and local context. Every article includes a “Local Impact” section explaining why the story matters to people in Ireland, plus “Why It Matters” context that goes beyond the headlines.

Each article includes source attribution and links to primary reporting, so readers can always trace our work back to the original sources. Our editorial standards require multiple source verification, balanced perspectives, and clear separation between reporting and commentary.

Our Coverage

We cover nine core areas that reflect the breadth of Irish life: Good News celebrating community heroes and achievements, NI covering Northern Ireland from Stormont to the Sperrins, Ireland for news across the Republic and island-wide stories, Politics from Stormont to the Dáil to Westminster, Sport from GAA to rugby to boxing, Business & Economy, Culture & Arts, Health, and Irish Abroad — tracking the diaspora and world events with an Irish lens.

Our Team

Titanic News is led by Conor Brennan, Senior Editor, a Belfast-based journalist with over a decade of experience covering politics, business, and current affairs across the UK and Ireland. Conor specialises in making complex stories accessible and relevant to everyday readers.

Our wider editorial team brings together specialists across politics, sport, health, business, and culture — all united by a commitment to accurate, insightful reporting with a distinctly Irish perspective.
