Summary/Abstract: The paper presents the results of a contents analysis of print media in Niš on the life on the border in southeastern Serbia. It is based on the contents analysis of one year of Narodne Novine issues (the only daily newspaper in the Republic of Serbia south of the capital city). Texts from each issue of the newspaper during every single month were analysed in order to avoid seasonal variation, as well as the imbalance in the presence of different contents during one week. The research results show that Narodne Novine is characterised by an observation of the border regions in southeastern Serbia primarily from the quality-of-life perspective. There is no deeper examination of the way of life, religion, religious and folk customs, as well as with current cultural production. Cultural contents do not allow the readership to gain an insight into the everyday life of people on the border.
