Cambridge Day and The Week are published by Cambridge News Inc. which is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization dedicated to publishing fact-based news and information for Cambridge and Somerville.
Research showed that while Cambridge is a hub of innovation and civic engagement, its 120,000 residents lack access to consistent reporting on local government, education, housing, community happenings and issues. Here’s a link to our U.S. local news research.
In November 2024 a group of Cambridge citizens established a nonprofit news organization, Cambridge News Inc., to be led by a community-based board which acquired the existing Cambridge Day and The Week, founded by Marc Levy. Simultaneously, the Cambridge Community Foundation established and seeded a Local News Fund to help support Cambridge News Inc.
The rebuilt Cambridge Day will address the critical gap in local journalism and seek to cover and include the diversity of the city’s population. It aims to be a nonpartisan newsroom dedicated to assisting residents in making informed decisions to better their lives and hold local institutions accountable
In September 2025, Michael F. Fitzgerald was hired as Editor-in-Chief to transform the news source into a vital, trusted news outlet for Cambridge, using a range of media.
