The South Berwick Reporter was launched in the spring of 2023 by a group of citizens who were concerned that South Berwick did not have any regular news coverage.

The Reporter joins efforts across the country to provide news coverage in areas considered “news deserts.” As newspapers nationwide either close or are gobbled up by larger franchises, coverage in many areas, including South Berwick, has become essentially non-existent.

The South Berwick Reporter works in an atmosphere of inclusion and equity, and strives to reflect and report on the full diversity of the community within the capacity of its all-volunteer resources.
