Cambridge Times

Cambridge Times

"Cambridge Times" is a local newspaper in Southern Ontario serving the community of Cambridge, Ontario. The paper replaced the "Cambridge Reporter" as the local paper under the Metroland Media Group and owned Torstar Corporation.

History

The "Cambridge Times" was founded in the mid 1980's as a twice a week community newspaper. The paper was later merged with the former daily "Cambridge Reporter" and is now published three times a week since the mid-1990s. It focuses on all local news. The editorials have become known for a place for people to air their complaints which are sometimes overly personal in nature. The "Times" has had five owners and eight publishers since its start.

Present

Torstar bought the newspaper and its sister Fairway Group publications from Southam in 2004 and is now part of the Metroland Media Group which also includes regional sister daily newspapers "The Record" (Kitchener, Cambridge and Waterloo) and the "Guelph Mercury", as well as group of weekly newspapers.

Both the "Cambridge Times" and "The Record" serve Cambridge and are owned and published by Metroland Media Group but keep separate newsrooms and operations.

The current editor is Jeff Hurst. The group publisher is Neil Oliver - Metroland West.
