Marshall News Messenger announces new distribution schedule | Business

Adjustments to the distribution schedule allow staff of The News Messenger to continue serving long-term customers, while meeting the increasing demands of emerging digital audiences. Delivering customers local news, sports and entertainment remains the top priority for the organization. The production of local content will not diminish. Reporting will continue to be done seven days a week.

An e-edition is a replica of the traditional print newspaper design that is available in a digital format by visiting marshallnewsmessenger.com/eedition. The Marshall News Messenger’s app is available for download via Google Play and the Apple Store.

Along with the adjustment in distribution format, readers can expect to see increases in page count, featuring additional local and state news, sports and entertainment. Each print and e-edition is a stand-alone publication, and will not be a duplication of any previous edition. Access to the e-edition is available by 4 a.m. each morning.

“As a family company we understand how vital access to local news and information is to making decisions that can affect your household and community. Our commitment remains strong to produce valuable journalistic content that is engaging and improves the communities we serve,” added McHaney.

The weekend edition will give Sunday readers an early start. The upsized newspaper will begin hitting newsstands and driveways on Saturday.

All current subscribers have e-edition access as part of their package and can be accessed by visiting marshallnewsmessenger.com/eedition.
