Published in four editions, it covers international, national and local breaking news, and includes lively coverage of all sports. Throughout the week, the paper's features turn the spotlight on the entertainment industry, with regular reports on the cinema, music scene and new technology. There are also special features which highlight modern lifestyle choices, including fashion and food issues.

The Tele, as the paper is known locally, maintains contact with its readership in print, by phone and fax, and now across the world wide web. The correspondence column is different from most readers' pages in that it frequently provides an information service with pictorial interest.

We deal with queries about housing, NHS, welfare benefits, education, unsocial tenants, shopping, police . . . the list goes on and on . . .

The paper has backed numerous local campaigns, including the provision of state-of-the-art medical technology at Ninewells Hospital. And, when Dundee City council wanted to canvass ideas on how to celebrate the millennium, it was to the Tele and its readers they turned.
