The Bristol Evening Post is a newspaper covering news in the city of Bristol, including stories from the whole of Greater Bristol, Northern Somerset and South Gloucestershire.[3]
The title of the newspaper is something of a misnomer; both editions are published overnight, the two-star edition is distributed to retailers in outlying areas and the three-star edition is distributed to retailers in the newspaper's perceived core area.
The newspaper has an in-house subsidiary, News Direct, which provides a home delivery service to readers.[4]
The Bristol Evening Post has an entertainments website called Crackerjack as well as a 20-page supplement published every Thursday. Crackerjack features news and reviews for eating out, music, theatre, movies, clubbing, days out and art.[5]
In May 2009 it was announced that the Post, and sister paper the Western Daily Press, would no longer be printed in Bristol, but at Northcliffe's central printing unit at Didcot in Oxfordshire.[6]
