The Dominion Post is a metropolitan broadsheet newspaper published in Wellington, owned by the Australian Fairfax group, owners of The Age of Melbourne and The Sydney Morning Herald. The newspaper was created by the previous owners, Independent Newspapers Limited (INL, 49 per cent owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Limited), from an amalgamation of two Wellington metro broadsheets The Dominion (commenced Dominion Day, 1907) and The Evening Post (1865) in July 2002. INL sold the paper and all other New Zealand newspapers and most magazines in its stable to Fairfax in 2003.
