In Search of The Truth! Brisbane's Infamous Scandal Sheet Newspaper.



The Truth Newspaper, Sunday, October 18th, 1936.


I set out in search of the truth one Saturday morning.Off to the State Library of Queensland in search of the The Truth newspaper Brisbane's most salacious, tabloid newspaper, scandal sheet, rag sheet. The Truth's archives are not digitised but can be from microfilm held at the SLQ. In it's time, The Truth had one of the highest circulations of any newspaper in Australia, in the early 1960's it was re-branded as The Sun and ceased publishing in 1991.
