In 1949, "The Courier" newspaper was established in the Unley/Mitcham area. Meantime, the "Eastside News Review" was formed in 1961 with two editions, Burnside and Campbelltown. In 1965, the two "Eastside News Review" papers were merged to form the "Burnside and Norwood News Review". In 1984, "The Courier" was renamed the "Courier Messenger" and the "Burnside and Norwood News Review" was renamed the "Burnside Messenger". The "Burnside Messenger's" named was changed after just one year to the "Eastern Suburbs Messenger". In 1993, the "Eastern Suburbs Messenger" and the "Courier Messenger" were merged to form the "Eastern Courier Messenger".
