History

There were morning and evening editions, but the latter were later deleted from the program. The once competing with the Mirror on the evening market from the Fairfax Sun -Verlag already disappeared in the late 1980s without replacement from the market. The market for evening papers only revived again with the free distribution of commuters since 2005 ultra shallow Boulevard Postille mX, which is also produced by the Murdoch empire.

By January 1996, the newspaper ran under that name until they, despite concerns that previous readers of the "Mirror" would now turn away from the newspaper was renamed back to The Daily Telegraph. Because of the unique position in the Sydney's newspaper market, this was a danger, however, not really. With 409,000 copies sold per day in the first half of 2004, the Tele is by far the best-selling newspaper in the Sydney area.
