"Teesside Gazette" changed the title of its cover page from "Evening Gazette" to "The Gazette" in 2014 after the company began releasing the newspaper to newsagents on mornings instead of evenings as it had done previously. It mainly provides local news, but also covers national, international and sports news as well as having various supplements relating to lifestyle, business, and events. Many local newspapers in the mid-20th century produced a special sports edition on Saturday evening. Before
