The Peterborough Examiner
Established in 1847 as the Peterborough Despatch, the Peterborough Examiner later adopted its current name, The Examiner, a few years later. Although it was not the first newspaper in the community, it has become the longest-running and is currently the only daily newspaper serving Peterborough. The Examiner has had several homes over the years. Initially, it moved between different downtown locations before settling on George Street. In the 1930s, it relocated to the southeast corner of Hunter and Water streets. By the 1990s, the newspaper had moved to The Kingsway and has recently shifted to a new site in East City. Over the decades, The Examiner has played a vital role in chronicling the events of the city and county, covering news, sports, and the arts. Its award-winning newsroom continues to provide readers with up-to-date breaking news through its website, which garners around 2.4 million pageviews monthly, as well as its print edition, which has been in continuous publication for 173 years.
