Founded by Samuel Bowles, an American journalist from Springfield, Massachusetts, the Weekly Republican began on September 8th, 1824. Surprisingly, the name of the paper had nothing to do with politics at the time, for the Republican Party wasn't founded until 30 years later in 1854. The Republican grew rapidly with New England's economy as the Industrial Revolution dominated the region, converting to a daily publication in 1844. In the 1850s and 1860s, The Republican was a go-to source for many Europeans and Americans looking to find out what was occurring in our country during that time. It wasn't until the year 1878 that The Republican decided to publish a Sunday newspaper. Since then, generations of families have relied on The Republican for comprehensive local, regional, national and international news coverage, as well as opinion and advertising. We strive to enlighten, educate and entertain readers every day. Today, we are more than just a newspaper. We are a multi-platform media company with the ability to provide readers with breaking news and information at our online home, MassLive.com. Readers can interact with The Republican and connect with other readers at MassLive.com. El Pueblo Latino, our weekly Spanish-language newspaper, provides relevant news and information to the growing Hispanic population in our region. POP Network is our point of purchase screens through out the Western Mass area for advertisements to reach an even larger local audience with video ads.

We do cover surrounding communities, as well. The Eagle-Tribune has its roots in The Essex Eagle, which launched on April 13, 1867, to serve the same region of readers as we do today. Nearly a century and a half later, our core mission hasn’t changed, though the tools and means for fulfilling it certainly have. We publish seven days a week, including the flagship Sunday Eagle-Tribune. What’s that mission? It’s to bring you the compelling stories that arise in your communities all day, every day. Be it a fire, a nor’easter, a high school football playoff, town festival, grammar school theater production, chili cook-off, or homecoming of American soldiers, you will find the story meaningfully reported in print and electronically by The Eagle-Tribune. Our award-winning publication is known for outstanding journalism, aggressive coverage of breaking news, and award-winning editorials, sports, community and feature coverage. Our journalists have their boots on the ground all over the region seven days a week. All of this prepares us to bring you exclusive, comprehensive coverage about the communities where you live, work and recreate, and to feature news, names and faces from the places you care about most. Now and always, for The Eagle-Tribune it’s all about telling the stories — local stories, your stories ... stories.
