The Salem News

The Salem News covers 13 communities on the North Shore — Salem, Beverly, Danvers, Peabody, Ipswich, Hamilton, Wenham, Marblehead, Swampscott, Middleton, Topsfield, Boxford and Manchester. We are based in Beverly, at the old Beverly Times building on Dunham Road, by the music theater.

We've been around for more than 140 years, and our core mission hasn't changed. We are local journalists. We're here to cover our communities as widely and deeply as possible. We cover fires and blizzards, garden shows and Pinewood Derbies. We are one of the few community newspapers in the state with both a courts reporter and a Statehouse bureau. In our features section, we write about everything from the newest exhibit at the Peabody Essex Museum to the annual Beverly Arts Fest.

Our sports report is second to none — you won't find more local kids and sports featured anywhere. Most days you'll find more than 150 local kids named in dozens of stories.

Our opinion pages run more letters to the editor and local columns from readers than any other paper in our chain — that's about 130 papers.

In short, it all comes down to local — we do everything we can to tell local stories, every day.
