Tired of Missing the Wilkes-Barre Stories That Matter?

Why Wilkes-Barre News?

In Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania—a city of about 41,000 with a rich labor history—you're surrounded by some of the most dedicated local journalism in America. Unlike most small towns losing their papers, Wilkes-Barre thrives with a fierce rivalry between The Citizens’ Voice and The Times Leader, two competing daily newspapers that together employ 22 full-time reporters covering everything from elections and infrastructure to community events. This unique setup means deeper, more reliable coverage of Luzerne County issues, from flood wall projects to public safety alerts, delivered through print, digital sites, and local TV like FOX56. But staying on top of it all? It's exhausting—flipping between newspapers, websites, and broadcasts just to catch the stories that affect your daily life. Residents rely on this mix for hyper-local insights, like nonprofit awards or state budget impacts, but the overload leads to missed details on crime from Shore News Network or radio traditions fading with veterans like George Graham's 50-year retirement. That's where Briefsy changes everything: we pull from these trusted sources to create your one-stop newsletter, blending Wilkes-Barre's pulse with whatever else lights you up, so you feel connected without the hassle. Picture the relief of informed mornings, not frantic searches—knowing you're ahead on local elections or community spotlights while enjoying personalized extras. It's the effortless way busy pros like you stay in the know, saving hours and reducing stress from information chaos.
