The Essex Reporter is a part of O'Rourke Media Group owned and published by Jim O'Rourke, who also owns the Sun in Colchester, Vermont and several other Vermont newspapers. [2] [3]

History

In April 2020, the paper ceased its weekly print publication and moved to only publish content online. [4] This was in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and loss of some top advertisers. The paper's print edition returned in September 2023, now published monthly. [5]
