Mendelssohn Dispatch
12 Bartholdy Avenue, Mendelssohn
The Mendelssohn Dispatch is the local daily for-profit newspaper published in the city of Mendelssohn. The Dispatch capitalizes on its local news reporting focused on the city of Mendelssohn to differentiate itself from the Harmony Inquirer and the Harmony Ideas, the two dominant regional newspapers published in nearby Harmony.
The city of Mendelssohn often loses its distinct local identity in many matters as it is frequently ensnared with Harmony when outsiders combine the two cities into one greater metropolitan area under the umbrella of Harmony due to the proximity of the two cities and their tight economic ties. The Dispatch militantly defends the localism of Mendelssohn in this environment and as a result earns the trust and enthusiasm of local readers.
The Mendelssohn Dispatch has a local circulation of 157,000, which is larger than the typical dominant local newspaper in a city of Mendelssohn's size. The Dispatch's regional circulation of 140,000 is smaller than other major newspapers that publish regional editions, however The Dispatch publishes a regional edition anyway to ensure readers in the eastern interior portion of the Brookeview Bay region have access to a newspaper reporting on their nearest major city. A total circulation of 297,000 yields a readership figure of 1,046,000. The Dispatch earns a revenue of 719,000μ/AU from subscriptions, newsstand fees, and advertising. An edition of The Mendelssohn Dispatch can be purchased from local newsstands for 30mμ.
