WHY DOES BIDDEFORD NEED ANOTHER MEDIA OUTLET?
We believe that there is no such thing as too much local news coverage.
Biddeford once had its own daily paper. Sadly, the Journal Tribune closed its doors and ceased publication in October 2019. The weekly Biddeford-Saco Courier was once a thriving, locally owned and operated weekly news publication. That publication was sold to Maine’s largest newspaper conglomerate several years ago. The Courier ceased printing in March 2025.
Today, there are gaps in Biddeford news coverage, but we DO NOT seek to compete with other professional publications.
Our primary goal is to provide our readers with reliable and accurate information about the city of Biddeford. To achieve that goal, we have adopted a unique, collaborative approach to sharing news about the city of Biddeford.
Whenever possible, we will share (with crystal-clear attribution) news about Biddeford from other professional news organizations. We will use our own social media platforms to drive traffic to — other media companies | LEARN MORE
