Search below for local news originators by municipality. Local news originators include newspapers, “digital-first” outlets (online newspapers and digital-native outlets), and a handful of public media who have robust local newsrooms. For broadcast outlets, the municipalities listed are within listener or viewer coverage area; text-based outlets are listed according to those towns the outlets say they serve.
There may be an outlet that serves your community that could not be mapped because its coverage area was either too diffuse or not geographically contiguous (e.g. the outlet serves small pockets of ethnic communities throughout the tristate area or is topic-based). This list of outlets, along with their websites, is at the bottom of the page.
The following municipalities have zero local news originators who say they serve them: Alloway Township, Elsinboro Township, Lower Alloways Creek Township, and Quinton Township.
