Media experts rated Polokwane Observer as one of the top three community newspapers in South Africa. This relatively young newspaper, established in 2004, scooped the top award as overall best community newspaper during 2005 as well as 2009 competing against the more than 300 community newspapers country wide in the annual prestigious and highly esteemed Sanlam Community Press Award Function. Polokwane Observer’s beautiful presentation, innovative layout and use of colour are a refreshing breeze in the community press division of South Africa. It is a complete newspaper, elegant and a standard for the industry. It knows its readers and writes for them. It’s incisive, relevant and critical. Pages have impact from the front to the back. Comments, letters, you name it, it is there. It’s a pleasure to read and a winner in the industry.
