The Northern Advocate is the regional daily paper for the city of Whangārei and the Northland Region in New Zealand.
History
The Whangarei Comet and Northern Advertiser was founded in 1875 as a weekly paper by George Alderton and, despite a small population which led to a prediction the paper "would go up like a comet, and come down like a stick", [3] the paper flourished and within two years had expanded to 12 pages and become the Northern Advocate and General Advertiser , with a small section printed in Māori . [3] The paper began daily publication in 1902. On Monday, 23 April 2012, the weekday Northern Advocate changed to tabloid format.
