Concord Monitor

The Concord Monitor is the daily newspaper for Concord, the capital of New Hampshire, covering Merrimack County and portions of Belknap, Grafton, Rockingham, and Hillsborough counties.

The Monitor was founded as a daily in 1864, tracing its lineage back to the weekly New Hampshire Patriot, founded in 1809 by publisher Isaac Hill. William Dwight, publisher of the Holyoke Transcript-Telegram, bought the Monitor in 1961; his son-in-law George W. Wilson took over in 1975, and the paper has been the flagship of Newspapers of New England, Inc. since 1993. Photographer Preston Gannaway won the paper's Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography in 2008. Starting in March 2024, the paper ceased Sunday print publication after decades of seven-day-a-week printing.

The Monitor publishes New Hampshire state government and politics coverage, including its "Capital Beat" column, along with associated publications The Concord Insider, LiveWell, At Home NH, and Green Guide NH.

The paper is available in print and online at concordmonitor.com as part of a subscription.
