The Northern Echo is a major English regional daily newspaper, published in Darlington and covering north-east England between North Yorkshire and Tyneside; its circulation area overlaps significantly with that of The Journal, based in Newcastle upon Tyne[1]. It was founded in 1870 and took a Liberal line on the political issues of the day. Probably its most illustrious editor was W.T. Stead (1849-1912), who subsequently exposed the scandal of child prostitution in London and died in the sinking of the RMS Titanic[2].
