We’ve got some exciting news to share – the Franklin Times is now publishing fortnightly! This has been the goal since launching back in February, and it’s amazing we can finally take this big step forward.
Times Media is committed to producing top-notch community news across the wider Franklin area. To that end, we have brought two new journalists on board, Jane Nixon and Kerry Lee.
We look forward to bringing more of your news to our readers, both in the newspaper and on our website. While we have a physical newspaper out fortnightly, we publish articles on our website seven days a week.
So, what does this mean for Franklin? It means the same newspaper that you’ve grown to know and love, just twice a month! Thank you all for your support, we couldn’t take this step without your advertising, subscriptions to our website, and ongoing news tips. It also means more manpower to share your stories as up until now, it has largely been a solo effort from yours truly, supported by our Howick office and some amazing Junior Journalists and contributors.
Love the Franklin Times and want to see us continue to thrive and shine a spotlight on you, our Franklin community? Keep placing those ads, supporting the amazing businesses and individuals who spend their hard-earned money supporting us, and keep reading our stories via our website and social media pages.
Thank you to our cartoonist, Roger Smith, who has drawn inspiration from my time as a fledgling student journalist embedded with the NZ Army, and created this amusing caricature.
