Inniu

Inniu was an Irish-language newspaper, published in Dublin, Ireland, from 17 March 1943 until 24 August 1984 when it was merged with the Galway-based publication Amárach to form a new weekly newspaper Anois, which started in September 1984.

History

Initially the paper was a monthly publication but in April 1945 it changed to a weekly paper. The paper had offices on Merrion Square in Dublin and later in O'Connell Street. The paper was founded by Ciarán Ó Nualláin and Proinsias Mac an Bheatha who were disaffected with Conradh [na Gaeilge] and had formed a grouping called Glúin na Bua.
Ciaran Ó Nualláin remained as editor from its foundation until 1979, when he was succeeded by the assistant editor, Tarlach Ó hUid.
The loss of Irish Government financial support due to rationalisation led to the demise of the paper.
