Letter from the editor

The Weekend Argus is an important part of the seven-day offering from the Cape Argus, offering a complete change of pace from the Monday to Friday newspaper.

The emphasis is on achieving a lighter and brighter look and feel with the content to match.

Importantly, the Saturday edition of Weekend Argus offers the biggest property market in the Western Cape, Personal Finance, a seven-day TV guide and a comprehensive guide to weekend fun.

The Sunday edition of Weekend Argus is aimed at the reader who has a bit more time and wants to settle into a comfortable couch for a good, thought-provoking read as well as all the latest sporting action.

However the Weekend Argus is in the process of getting a new look and readers can look forward to focused Saturday and Sunday editions of Weekend Argus with fresh and exciting editorial ideas.
