Today saw the relaunch of the Rutlnd Times selling at a new higher price of 55p
The free gifts promised is a football DVD, yes most annoyingly to the Average Rutland Times Reader
not available in VHS or Beta Max Format.
The editorial content remains unchanged and there are about three small job adverts.
The Rutland Times leads with a story that first appeared in the news around 10 days ago.
Text content and photographs are framed with the most annoying black or green bars?
I did find the cartoon rather amusing, It refers to a news item from last week.
Tory Leader Roger Begy celebrated 40 years of Oakham Library by cutting a cake. It has a caption that suggests the Tory Leader could be corrupt when he returns overdue library books. Surely Roger would never do such a thing ? ;-)

The Rutland Times also failed to take advantage of its own advertising spaces to promote its relaunch, there was also a
noticable lack of publicity at its South Street Office
