Telegram - Serving Metropolitan Detroit Since 1944

Aley Haley, writer of the acclaimed book, ‘Roots’, lived by six words, "Find the good and praise it." Each week, the Telegram Newspaper strives to share information about the good people are doing while reporting on positive stories that are happening in our communities and sharing information that will help our readers improve the lives of their families.

Our goal is to continue to increase the number of people reading these stories each week. We are growing and expanding, as we prepare to celebrate our 79th year of providing news to the community, but we are sure there are more people who would benefit from positive and informative news. Through circulation test samples we’ve conducted over the last quarter, we noticed that people are reading test Telegrams placed throughout Wayne County. Now that our test runs for this year are complete, we are confident that more people are enjoying reading the Telegram News. We have also noticed an increase in visits to our website.

One of the best gifts you can give to yourself or to one of your loved ones is a subscription to the Telegram Newspaper. Lock in your subscription rate today! A one year subscription delivered to your home by one of our ‘Papermen/Women’ is still only $30.00 for those living in Wayne County. For the cost of a 2 for $25 meal at Applebees, you can stay informed with news happening in the Metropolitan Detroit community which includes several cities in Wayne County for an entire year. For those of you that want to try it out for six months, that cost would be only $20.00. If you want to have a Telegram mailed to your family members, kids away at college or loved ones in the prison system, we can mail a weekly newspaper to them for $65.00 for the year.

We thank all of those who have been supporters of the Telegram over the years and pray that you continue to enjoy the second half of 2023. I encourage you to ‘Celebrate my 17th Anniversary’ with me by giving a subscription to someone. Each subscription includes online access so you can read the Telegram on your cell phone, computer or tablet.

If you are interested, please call us at 313-928-2955, email us at [email protected], visit our website http://www.telegramnews.net and click on the Subscribe button on the top right side of the Home Page or complete the subscription form on Page 12A and mail it in to: Telegram Newspaper P. O. Box 29085 Ecorse, MI 48229.

It’s better to give than to receive.
