The Kalamazoo Gazette has launched a new weekly newsletter called 'Your Kalamazoo Gazette This Week' that will be delivered every Friday at 6 a.m. The newsletter, curated by Editor Taylor DesOrmeau, will include a letter from the editor, three highlighted Kalamazoo stories from the week, and a roundup of seven other noteworthy local stories readers may have missed.

Why it matters

With the local news landscape becoming increasingly fragmented across social media and online platforms, the Kalamazoo Gazette is aiming to provide readers with a one-stop-shop for important community news and information in an easy-to-digest weekly format.

The details

The new newsletter will cover a range of Kalamazoo-focused topics, including new restaurants, development projects, road closures, crime news, school district updates, and more - all written by reporters embedded in the local community. Readers can sign up for the newsletter for free and get a 60-day trial, with a full subscription available as a perk of an MLive print or digital subscription.
