Telegram - Serving Metropolitan Detroit Since 1944

Time is really moving fast. Another year of providing providing positive news to the residents of Southeastern Michigan and throughout the country has gone past. I thank all of you who continue to support the Telegram News by purchasing a copy each week, advertising your business or utilizing us to inform the residents about the happenings in city government. . A special thank you goes out to everyone who plays a role in the Telegram; from our reporters, photographers, delivery people, administrative personnel and support staff. We couldn't have reached this milestone without your dedication.

We have the privilege of sharing more stories about our seasoned senior citizens who are at least 80 years old in our Senior Star section. I have learned so much about them and our country just by reading their stories. This information is vital as we understand our history. We will continue to reach out to our seniors to share their lives with you.

Earlier this year, I was selected to serve on the board of the Michigan Press Association, thus opening the Telegram News to the entire state of Michigan. The new relationships that I am building with other publishers is helping me to expand our horizons.

Each week, we get new subscriptions to the Telegram. I am always excited when I open the mail or email to see that another family is subscribing to receive a weekly dose of positive information via the Telegram News.

With all of the price increases happening in the industry, we thought we were going to have to increase the weekly cost of the Telegram. However, we decided to keep the price the same for another year. I like saying that the Telegram is the best investment you can make in your family. We are the less expensive newspaper on the newsstands throughout Wayne County. That's not to say that we will never raise the price, but this year, the price will remain the same. Many people are locking their subscriptions in for multiple years. I think they know what's coming.

Thank you for another year of believing in me as CEO/Publisher of this historic media outlet. The Telegram News continues to grow and expand and reach people where they are. Your subscription allows you to read the Telegram in print, on your computer/tablet or on your cell phone. The Telegram is Everywhere. . If you don't have a subscription, lock in your rate today.

We will continue to provide empowering, informative, educational and uplifting information to the community.
