local paper
Town's news source
A local paper is a newspaper that covers news, events, and issues within a specific geographic area—a town, city, or region.
Local papers report on municipal government, school boards, high school sports, and community happenings that larger publications ignore: I saw the announcement in the local paper.
The term often carries nostalgic connotations as print circulation declines.
