Founded in 1846, The Cambridge Chronicle holds the distinction of being the oldest weekly newspaper in the United States that is still publishing. Though its editorial offices are located in Somerville, next to the Davis Square MBTA station on Holland St., the paper serves the city of Cambridge.

A print edition is published weekly on Thursdays and is available both for purchase in town or via home delivery.  Their online version, Wicked Local Cambridge, is updated daily. The paper is owned by GateHouse Media Inc., which publishes over 300 papers in 20 states. Print circulation is approximately 7,500.
