About us

Thesun.ie is the online edition of The Irish Sun, Ireland’s most popular newspaper and a member of the Press Council of Ireland.

The Irish Sun cares about quality of life, the kind of world we live in, and about people.

The Irish Sun is more than a newspaper. It is an instigator, an entertainer, a cultural reference point, a finger on the pulse and a daily relationship.

The Irish Sun has been a campaigning newspaper since its inception and continues to be so today, most recently with our Kids Can't Wait campaign, calling for urgent action as hundreds of children remain on waiting lists for life-saving treatments.

Politically, The Irish Sun stands for ordinary working people looking to get on, building better lives for themselves and their families, regardless of where they grow up or which school they went to.

The Irish Sun strives to the very highest standards of accuracy in its reporting, and continues to invest in original journalism in print and online.

JOURNALISTIC STANDARDS

The Irish Sun is committed to upholding the highest possible editorial standards. We believe strongly in freedom of expression, and that journalism should not be unduly constrained by regulation or the law. We have a long tradition of covering news with a unique style and tone – a voice that is recognisably and distinctly ours. We are proud of it, and we want all our output to be fun, fearless and forthright.

But we also want it to be factual, where facts matter. We are regulated by the Press Council of Ireland and the Office of the Press Ombudsman and we subscribe to the Code of Practice for Newspapers and Magazines that it oversees. Although we reject any kind of press control by the state, we are committed to observing the Code of Practice, both in letter and spirit, and we are strong supporters of the Press Council. We believe that the principles embodied by the Code of Practice – in respect of Accuracy, Privacy and the many other topics it covers – should be integral to all our journalism. We strive to ensure they are.

Where readers have complaints or concerns about our reporting, The Irish Sun has a robust procedure in place to ensure those complaints are taken seriously and dealt with with all deliberate speed. If you believe a story we have published is inaccurate, you can email [email protected].

If you wish to make your complaint through the post, please write to the following address: The Editor, The Irish Sun, 2nd Floor, Macken House,  39-40 Mayor Street Upper, Dublin, D01 C9W8.

If you would like to make a complaint under the terms of the Code of Practice, administered by the PCI, click here for information on that process.
