New digital-only ePapers serving the southern part of the state launched this week. They are written and produced by the Maine Trust for Local News community reporters.
The front of the new Kennebunk Now live edition for March 26.
The ePapers are linked and branded to each reporter’s digital newsletters: Cape-SoPo-Scarborough Now, Lakes Region Now, Westbrook-Gorham Now, Cumberland-Yarmouth Now, Falmouth Now, Biddeford-Saco Now and Kennebunk Now. Readers can subscribe to the free newsletters at pressherald.com/newsletters.
Readers can find the editions through links in community newsletters, by signing up for email alerts when the editions are published, or by visiting the ePaper page that showcases all digital editions from The Maine Trust for Local News.
The shift to digital-only products comes following the final print editions of free weekly newspapers in the region: the Portland Forecaster, Northern Forecaster, American Journal, Courier, Lakes Region Weekly, Post, Leader and Sentry.
All five reporters who wrote for those print publications will continue covering the region for their digital newsletters and associated digital ePapers.
Veteran journalist Nick McCrea is the editor of these digital publications, in addition to being editor of The Times Record weekly newspaper. He can be reached at 207-504-8222 and by email: nmccrea@metln.org.

We believe it’s important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It’s a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others. Read more...
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
By joining the conversation, you are agreeing to our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is found on our FAQs.
