Sisters and Competitors
Newspapers of New England, based in Concord, New Hampshire, owns both the Gazette and its main daily competitor to the north, The Recorder of Greenfield, Massachusetts. The Gazette also competes in its own coverage area with The Republican, a regional daily in Springfield.
In addition to the daily newspaper, Gazette newsrooms publish two weekly newspapers serving Northampton's suburbs, based in the newspaper's two satellite news bureaux, and one regional weekly:
- The Amherst Bulletin, published every Friday, covers several towns east of Northampton: Amherst, Deerfield, Hadley, Leverett, Pelham, Shutesbury and Sunderland, Massachusetts.
- The Summit, a Thursday tabloid, is delivered free to each home in Easthampton, Southampton and Westhampton, Massachusetts.
- The Valley Advocate, an alternative weekly, is distributed for free throughout the Pioneer Valley, including the Five College Area, greater Springfield and southern Vermont. It began as an independent newspaper in 1973 and has a circulation of about 53,000.

Famous quotes containing the word sisters:
“The quickness with which all the “stuff” from childhood can reduce adult siblings to kids again underscores the strong and complex connections between brothers and sisters.... It doesn’t seem to matter how much time has elapsed or how far we’ve traveled. Our brothers and sisters bring us face to face with our former selves and remind us how intricately bound up we are in each other’s lives.”
—Jane Mersky Leder (20th century)
