Media Landscape in Greater Gardner MA is Evolving and Changing for the Better!
The Gardner News: The oldest media concern in Gardner is the Gardner News, first established in 1869. Over the past months, the local paper has made a concerted effort to cover more local stories. Long-time reporter Steve Landry is known for his quality insightful serious and people stories. Newcomer Emily Cardona is notably covering Winchendon in detail. And John Ballou’s sports coverage is legendary. Here are some links: You can support the Gardner News by subscribing. Website —- Obituaries — Local News —- Sports
WGAW Radio: The radio station has been around since 1946 and has been owned by experienced broadcaster, military man, and newsman Steve Wendell for over a decade. The radio station is on-the-air 24/7 with a News – Talk format and can be heard at AM 1340, 98.1 FM, and from anywhere in the world via its online stream. The station starts its day at 5am with America’s First News with Gordon Deal, features the Morning News with Steve Wendell from 6am to 9am when Steve covers what’s happening in Gardner and surrounding communities, and continues throughout the day with various talk programming. Weekend audiences love the highly popular “At Home with Gary Sullivan” and the iconic treat of Saturday is the local interview show “Hotline Radio” from noon to 2pm. You can support the station by advertising – reportedly a monthly schedule of 50 sixty second ads is about a $100 bill. (1/3 of the cost 40+ years ago) Website.
Gardner Magazine – Gardner Herald: Gardner Magazine first launched as GreaterGardner.net in 2000 at a time when high-speed internet hadn’t even penetrated everywhere like today. A few years later we adopted Gardner Magazine and added Gardner Herald to demonstrate that while we are a magazine, we are also a newspaper of record. Gardner Magazine is notable in covering local government in detail including making AUDIO available from the Mayor, City Council meetings, School Committee meetings, various other meetings and events, Newsmaker interviews, and original content. While local news is our main focus on the home page, we feature state, local, and international news in detail aggregated from sources across the state, nation, and world. We make an archive of our news available by month as well as an archive of AUDIO. As of March 23, 2023, our monthly unique circulation is around 20,000. You can support Gardner Magazine by a voluntary donation as we don’t use a subscription model. Any amount is appreciated to support our journalism. CLICK HERE.
