Abstract
Community newspapers play an important role in community development, especially within the communities in which they are produced. They play a huge role in lobbying people, empowering them and in ensuring that there is an active participation towards community development processes. Community newspapers are driven by democratic principles that are socially orientated and not profit driven. Hence, a number of people use them as a platform to share their views and ideas about anything that concerns them. In the light of the above, this study evaluates the reader's perceptions of ldikelethu Newspapers as a tool for community development, particularly in Alice, which is located within the Nkonkobe Municipality in the
Province of Eastern Cape.
