It is Scotland's best-selling national broadsheet. Mark Douglas-Home, nephew of the late Sir Alec Douglas-Home, is a former editor. On Thursday 1 December it was announced that he had left the title after five years.

Could somebody clarify this:
It is worthy of mention that the Herald's current stance of charging for archive accesses prejudices substantiating many Wikipedia items solely covered by the newspaper and relevant to predominately Glasgow or Scotland. JesseHogan 02:02, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
Clarify how? Articles *are* only available on the website for two or three days, and this does make it useless for just about, ooh, anything. I think that's a bit too Meta for the main article, however. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.71.49.157 ( talk • contribs) 00:41, February 9, 2006 (UTC)

Is anyone aware of the editorial stance of the Herald? It would be very handy to be able to compare The Herald with the Scotsman in this respect, the latter defined as "centre-right", so that we can get an idea of the prevalent political allegiances in Scotland's two "newspapers of record". Many thanks if someone is capable of adding this, unfortunately I am not a regular reader of either. 86.138.137.123 13:53, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
The Sunday Herald urged people to vote SNP in the May '07 Scottish election, I can't remember if the Herald did the same. 86.4.222.140 ( talk) 22:57, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
"It is Scotland's best-selling broadsheet", would appear to be false. The link to ABC confirms that the Press & Journal has Total Average Net Circulation Per Issue of 84,137 and the Dundee Courier with 79,945. And that The Herald has Total Average Net Circulation Per Issue of 71,686. It could be an honest mistake as The Herald has more national coverage than the P&J and Courier, or that the "Voice of the North" does not publish it's Saturday edition as a broadsheet. However I feel that this could be brand promotion on Wikipedia and therefore this line should be deleted and replaced with the facts. Anyone disagree? Benson85 20:49, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
