Saturday Night claimed to be "A free and fearless paper with the cream of the news." It appears to have been a campaign organ of J. R. Bennett. Its contents were devoted to national politics and opposed Squires, Coaker and the Daily Mail.

The Sentinel published domestic and foreign news, shipping news, legislative proceedings, poetry, serial fiction and letters to the editor. The prospectus promised the paper would promote the interests of the mercantile community and maintain a commercial point of view, but the Sentinel was politically independent in most matters and moderately Liberal in outlook. It supported the temperance movement and published news of all religious denominations. In 1840, the paper caused a minor stir by endorsing James Douglas over Lawrence O'Brien in a controversial St. John's election. Spry closed the Sentinel down in October 1845 and started the Mercury and General Advertiser three months later.

The first issues of the Southern Post , "The Voice of Kilbride, Goulds and the Southern Shore" included news of that region, an advice column, local sports and editorials. The contents of the first issues indicated a possible Tory bias, having included an editorial which severely criticised Premier Brian Tobin, excerpts of an uncomplimentary article from the satirical magazine Frank on Liberal MP Jean Payne, and congratulatory messages from Progressive-Conservative politicians. The publisher and editor formerly worked at the Sunday Express and the Evening Telegram.

The Southern Shore Courier was intended to "to serve primarily a rural section of Newfoundland, the Southern Shore, which, it is understood, has not been undertaken hithertofore" (May 19, 1960). Published on newsprint in a tabloid format, it carried original regional news stories, personal and club news, songs, poetry, sports, stories, a "sportsman's corner", a women's column and advertisements.

According to a note in the microfilm copy of this paper: "Only 3 issues of this newspaper ever appeared. The publisher, John P. Harvey & Son, paid the editor, Herbert Cranford, to prepare the copy for each issue, which would then be printed and distributed along the Southern Shore. For each issue Mr. Cranford received $50.00."

The Southern Shore Weekly published community and personal news, a lot of church and religious news , television listings, recipes, and selected provincial news, usually involving crime and accidental deaths. The unknown editor expressed the frustrations of producing a paper of this sort: "The Southern Shore Weekly would like to thank the person who sent us the letter from fur her up the shore advising us not to publish the paper again as it is an insult to the Southern Shore. We would gladly return the price of the paper to them if they were kind enough to send us there name. or maybe that person would like the job of printing the paper , or becoming a news correspondence in their community or better still the job of proof reading." (Sept. 14, 1968)

The St. John's Daily News carried foreign and domestic news, advertisements, and legislative proceedings. Strongly Conservative, the Daily News was a supporter of the rights of the Protestant population. Co-publisher Francis Winton left the paper over growing political differences with his brother Robert and founded a rival paper, the Day-Book. The Daily News supported Hoyles and the Reform Party and opposed Parsons, Kent and Responsible Government. The paper supported the Carter-Shea Administration and was strongly in favour of Confederation. It opposed Charles Fox Bennett's anti-Confederates who defeated Carter in 1869. The main opponents of the News were, at first, the Newfoundlander, Patriot, Express, and Day-Book, and its successor, the Morning Chronicle and, later, the Courier. The St. John's Daily News was suspended for two years and reemerged in 1872 as the St. John's News, later known as the North Star.

The Daily Star contained domestic and foreign news, sports, poetry, fiction, advertisements and other typical features. It was started by H. M. Mosdell and R. Dowden, both of whom were formerly connected with the Fishermen's Advocate. The Advocate claimed it was funded by a few Water Street merchants "in the hope of using it as an anti-Confederate paper in the event of the matter becoming a live issue"⁽⁵⁰⁾. The sole purpose of the Daily Star for the first few years appeared to be to assail W. F. Coaker and the Fishermen's Advocate. The Advocate retaliated by publishing a column called "Mosdell's Boomerangs" which quoted Mosdell's earlier statements of praise for the man and his cause. The Star supported the Squires government and stopped attacking Coaker in about 1919, lashing out instead at A. B. Morine and C. J. Fox.

Although no copy of the Sunday Express has been located, mention was made of it in the Fishermen's Advocate:⁽⁵²⁾

Last Sunday St. John's and Newfoundland were shocked by the appearance upon the street of boys selling a paper called the Sunday Express. This sheet is printed at the Plaindealer office and edited by one Dooley of Western Star fame ... Every pulpit in the Colony should resent the outrage and call upon the people to defend their Sabbath from such intrusion ... Men turned white with anger as they beheld boys parading the streets offering the paper for sale as the people proceeded to Church. Newfoundland is not America and this Dooley will realize before many weeks.

The Sunday Express published local, provincial and national news, sports, history, entertainment, social and political commentary, advertisements and other features. Started on a weekly basis to test the market for a possible competitor to St. John's only daily, the Evening Telegram, the Express won national recognition as "the best little newspaper in Canada." ⁽⁵³⁾ The Express broke the Mount Cashel story and later lost their government advertising because of their negative coverage of a provincially-funded greenhouse venture. The paper folded due to decreased advertising revenue during the economic recession.
