The Brainerd Dispatch has been a daily paper since its inception in 1881, just before Christmas. Over the years, it has undergone many changes while maintaining its commitment to local journalism and the community. A dedicated team works tirelessly to ensure that the paper is available every morning in print, as an e-edition, through an app, or with extra content on www.brainerddispatch.com. They cover news, weather, sports and provide videos, photos, podcasts and updates on social media. Their focus is on stories from central Minnesota that touch on neighbors, lakes, communities, challenges and opportunities. The paper’s success relies heavily on support from the community.
