The Mail & Guardian;

The Mail & Guardian is an award winning South African newspaper, published nationwide each Friday, aimed at serious readers.

Our focus is on political analysis, investigative reporting, Southern African news, and comprehensive coverage of local arts and music.

Founded 1985 by a group of retrenched journalists from the deceased Rand Daily Mail. Built up a reputation for nose-thumbing attitude to the establishment and for uncovering Inkathagate scandal. Favourite prison reading of Nelson Mandela; banned for a while by PW Botha. In recent years, continues to be a thorn in the side of gravy-train politicians with reports on Oilgate, the corrupt police chief, and President Zuma's business interests.

Mail & Guardian readers are a niche market, interested in a critical approach to politics, arts and current affairs. Large numbers of our readers among professionals, academics, diplomats, lobbyists and non-governmental groups. We regularly achieve the highest circulation percentage increases in the newspaper market.
