A little more background here ... I'm a subscriber and read this newspaper every morning. Now that I think about it, my previous statement (in the edit history) that it's been the plain old ''Telegram & Gazette'' "since 1989" may be wrong. I vaguely recall that before the nameplate was redesigned, which was either in [[2004]] or [[2005]], if memory serves, it did say "Worcester" above the word "Telegram," in smaller font, in the same place where the date is now printed. And the company name -- the specific division of NYT Co. that publishes the T & G -- ''is'' "Worcester Telegram & Gazette Corp." But my point stands: the paper currently does not, in either the A1 nameplate nor the opinion page masthead, call itself the ''<strike>Worcester</strike> Telegram & Gazette'' (nor, for that matter, the ''<strike>Worcester</strike> Sunday Telegram'').

A little more background here ... I'm a subscriber and read this newspaper every morning. Now that I think about it, my previous statement (in the edit history) that it's been the plain old Telegram & Gazette "since 1989" may be wrong. I vaguely recall that before the nameplate was redesigned, which was either in 2004 or 2005, if memory serves, it did say "Worcester" above the word "Telegram," in smaller font, in the same place where the date is now printed. And the company name -- the specific division of NYT Co. that publishes the T & G -- is "Worcester Telegram & Gazette Corp." But my point stands: the paper currently does not, in either the A1 nameplate nor the opinion page masthead, call itself the Worcester Telegram & Gazette (nor, for that matter, the Worcester Sunday Telegram).
