Start where you live.
Choose a place and a few interests. See what matters across your community, alongside the issues and institutions you follow.
A new kind of local paper
The stories your community shares. The details that matter to you. A clear place to start—and a good place to stop.
Be informed.
Then get on with your day.

01 / The daily edition
Common is being built around an editor-selected daily edition: local reporting, relevant state and national stories, and personal layers around a shared view of the day.
Choose a place and a few interests. See what matters across your community, alongside the issues and institutions you follow.
Read the full report. Explore public sources, reporting credits and updates. Understand what changed and why it matters.
A dated edition with a beginning and an end. Follow ongoing stories without turning today’s paper into an endless feed.
02 / A closer look
Read deeply, listen on the move, or take a quick look. Each format leads back to the same reporting.
The full picture
Start with the essentials, stay for the detail. Public sources and a visible update history help you understand the reporting.

Take the paper with you
An edition briefing for the walk, the commute or the kitchen. Selected captioned reels offer another way into a story, with the full report close by.
Audio and reel experiences are part of the planned first version.


Keep a thread going
Follow the issues that stay with you. Return to meaningful developments, then put the paper down knowing you’re caught up.
Saved stories and followed issues are planned for local use, with optional account sync.


03 / The reporting comes first
Common Newsroom is the reader app from Common Publishing. Its planned reporting foundation is Common Newswire, with stories prepared, reviewed and published by Common’s reporters and editors.
The planned experience identifies reporting and editing credits, acknowledges AI assistance where used, and carries corrections through affected formats.
A moderated question channel is part of the app concept. Sensitive tips will have a separate intake process. Ordinary support email is not that channel.

Common Newsroom is in development for iPhone.
We’ll share availability here when it’s ready.
