McArt to return to 'Derry Journal' 24.04.07

Donegal and Derry's media grapevine went into overdrive yesterday with news former 'Derry Journal' editor-in-chief, Pat McArt, is returning to the paper as Inishowen editor.

The Burt-based journalist agreed, in recent days, to take up the post - returning to the paper he ran editorially for more than 25 years. He is currently director of elections for Donegal North East Fine Gael candidate, Senator Joe McHugh.
He told InishowenNews.com yesterday that he intends to continue his political advisory role for Fine Gael until after the election when he will take up his new editorial post.

As Inishowen editor, he will report to current 'Journal' editor Martin McGinley, who succeeded him when he stepped down just over a year ago.
The Inishowen editor post became vacant in February this year following the resignation of Linda McGrory, who now edits this website.
