  Metro (Associated Metro Limited) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Metro is the trading name of a free newspaper published by Associated Newspapers (part of Daily Mail and General Trust) in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland.
As noted above, Metro International does co-operate with Associated Metro on the Dublin version of the newspaper, although it is Associated Metro which provides the content, and the Dublin Metro uses the Associated Metro logo, not the Metro International one.
One of the major ways in which it is different from most other UK newspapers is that it claims to take a determinedly independent line on political reporting.

At this point, online newspapers are a focal point of media convergence, with many ties to traditional print newspapers but with the potential for many new features from the world of mixed-media digital communication, including audio, moving video, animation, and increased user control.
If, as McLuhan suggests, online newspapers are being thought of in terms of print newspapers, they might not be taking advantage of particular features of the web such as interactivity, the possibility for frequent updating (immediacy), and the potential for hypertext links and other kinds of original material (originality of content).
The importance of circulation of the associated print newspaper as a predictor was also indicated in the Gubman and Greer (1997) study.

 AEJMC Archives -- October 1998, week 2 (#10)
Some critics suggest that online newspapers so far are not living up to their potential.
One problem may be that many newspapers do not allow their online version to scoop their print versions (Ross, 1998).
Online newspapers appear to be taking advantage of some of the special features of the web, although slowly.

 CTP: North American dailies finally ready to make leap?
Case in point: Associated Newspapers Ltd. When the United Kingdom-based publisher was looking for ways to reduce the amount of time it took to print more than 3 million newspapers each day, digital plate production fueled by CTP was an integral ingredient, said Allan Marshall, group technology director.
Associated’s adoption of CTP mirrors Marshall’s goal to digitize the publisher’s entire workflow, from start to finish, by the end of 2004.
While CTP is permitting the newspaper to meet its current color and production goals, Ritchie said that performance has occurred in part because of the time the newspaper spent training staff and maintaining its Goss International Corp. and Heidelberg presses.

The breakthrough was Associated Newspapers accepting, after three months’ rigorous testing with a group of colour advertising suppliers, that VCSP digitally-delivered soft proofs are every bit as good as traditional contract proofs.
The solution enables advertising prepress suppliers not only to collaborate rapidly with their colleagues and clients on ad creation, but also to ensure that only correctly preflighted and Certified ads are proofed, and that only approved ads are submitted to the publisher together with all the relevant submission information.
Although the ability to deliver files electronically has been with us for a number of years, we have always needed to courier the final contract proof to the publishers, this often arriving after the publication has printed.
