Submit Your Story

Have a story New England should hear? Share it with our editorial team for review.

What We’re Looking For

NewBostonPost publishes principled journalism, commentary, and reporting rooted in clarity, tradition, and civic life. We welcome story ideas and submissions that:

  • Highlight people, institutions, parishes, or businesses shaping their communities
  • Cover education, culture, religion, politics, and public policy in New England
  • Provide first-hand accounts or credible documentation of events or decisions
  • Bring attention to issues affecting families, schools, churches, and civic life
  • Share local developments or events with broader regional or national significance

Not every submission becomes a published piece, but our editorial team reads every submission with care. If we decide to pursue your story, we will follow up with you directly.

Examples of Strong Pitches

News & Investigative Tips

  • Documentation of a school policy change that affects parental rights or religious freedom
  • Evidence of a local government decision that impacts taxpayers, churches, or small businesses
  • Internal communication or public records that reveal a significant shift in policy or practice

Feature & Human Interest Stories

  • A New England pastor, teacher, veteran, or community leader whose work deserves attention
  • A local charity, crisis pregnancy center, or ministry quietly serving those in need
  • Traditions, festivals, and cultural events that reflect the character of a town or parish

Community & Event Submissions

  • Upcoming events with wider public interest (lectures, conferences, rallies, church events)
  • Milestones for long standing local institutions or schools
  • Community efforts to preserve historic sites or traditional practices

Optional Enhancements You Can Include

These are not required, but they strengthen submissions and help our editorial team evaluate potential stories:

  • Documentation: Emails, letters, public records, policy documents, or official statements
  • Photos and video: Clear images or clips that show people, locations, or events
  • Timeline: Dates, locations, and key steps (what happened and when)
  • Local context: Names of towns, schools, parishes, institutions, or officials involved
  • Witnesses: Other people who can verify what happened (if they are comfortable being contacted)
  • Proposed angle: How you believe the story or commentary should be told and why it matters

Photo and Video Submissions

If you have photos or video, please describe what you have in the form below and include links (for example, to a shared drive or unlisted video). Our team may follow up if we need original files or higher resolution.

Anonymous Tips & Source Protection

We understand that some stories involve sensitive information, employment concerns, or personal risk. If you need to remain anonymous, please say so clearly in your submission.

  • Tell us what you can safely share and what must remain confidential.
  • Do not send sensitive material using a work device or work email.
  • If we need more information, we will work with you to determine a safe way to communicate.

We do not publish identifying details of confidential sources without their explicit permission. In some cases, we may verify information through independent documentation or additional sources before publishing.

Commentary Pieces & Thought Leadership

In addition to news tips and story ideas, we consider clearly argued commentary pieces on issues affecting New England and the country.

  • Commentary pieces should present a clear thesis, factual grounding, and a respectful tone.
  • We welcome contributions from conservative, liberal, libertarian, independent, and faith based perspectives that contribute to honest public debate.
  • Most commentary pieces range from 700–1,200 words and are tailored to New England readers.

If you are submitting a commentary piece for consideration, please note “Commentary Submission” in the subject or description field of the form and include a brief, one-sentence author bio.

Local & Regional Routing

NewBostonPost is especially interested in stories from across New England, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, Rhode Island, and Connecticut.

  • Please indicate your state (and town or city) in your submission.
  • If your story involves a specific school district, parish, or institution, name it clearly.
  • Regional details help us route your submission to the appropriate editor.

Submission Guidelines

  • Be specific: Tell us what happened, why it matters, and who is involved.
  • Be accurate: Share what you know first-hand and separate it from opinion or speculation.
  • Keep it original: We do not consider plagiarized, AI scraped, or rights restricted material.
  • Respect privacy: Avoid sharing sensitive personal details about private individuals without consent.

How It Works

  • Submit your story: Use the form below to share your tip, documentation, or commentary piece.
  • Editorial review: Our team evaluates submissions based on news value, sourcing, and relevance to our mission.
  • Follow up if selected: If we decide to pursue your submission, we will contact you for additional details, verification, or interviews.

Because of the volume of submissions we receive, we are not able to respond to every submission individually.

Important Legal Note

Submitting a story, tip, or commentary piece does not create an attorney client relationship, and NewBostonPost does not provide legal advice. If you believe you are facing an immediate legal, safety, or emergency situation, please contact appropriate authorities or your legal counsel directly before reaching out to the press.
