    		The Mirror is part of the TrinityMirror Group. Trinity Newspapers were the proprietors of the Liverpool Echo and the Daily Post (and my local rag the Southport Visiter - yes, it is spelt that way because someone got it wrong when it first came out!). Trinity took over the ailing Mirror group. Is the Daily Star a newspaper? I've never bought it, but I've never seen anything much like news in anyone else's copy that I've looked at.
