A family-owned newspaper now in its fourth generation of ownership, the Bangor Daily News has been Maine's newspaper of record for well over one hundred years. In addition, a new weekly, called the Midcoast Beacon, was released in late May 2009. Patterned after The Weekly, which the BDN has published successfully in the Bangor area for more than seven years, the Midcoast Beacon will be a community news source for readers in 43,000 households and businesses. It also will have an online component at maineville.com, part of the BDN website.
