Crowdfunded newspaper the Byline Times has released its first-ever retail print edition, with copies of the first issue landing on newsstands at the end of October. Moving from a subscriber-only Berliner format paper, printed by Newsquest, to an A4 magazine-style publication, the paper will now be available across the UK in an initial print run of 10,000 for newsstands. The launch is the UK’s first retail newspaper launch since 2016. Byline Times has engaged Dorset-based eco-print firm Blackmore Press to print the new version. Byline Times came to Blackmore through recommendation, according to Andrew Robbins, the firm’s managing director.
