The Westmeath Topic is a weekly newspaper founded in Mullingar, Ireland in November 1971.[3] It was established by Dick Hogan, Albert Morris and Tommy Kiernan, each of whom had previously worked with the Westmeath Examiner.[3]
Beginning as a small A4-size magazine under the name "TOPIC", the publication subsequently became a weekly newspaper circulated primarily in the Midlands Region.[2]
It is one of a small number of Irish titles which are still printed, published and owned locally.[2] The newspaper is owned by the Topic Newspapers group, which also publishes the Athlone Topic, Meath Topic and Offaly Topic titles.[4]
