Boston Weekly covers the news that shapes life in Boston and across Massachusetts — City Hall and the State House, the T and the Pike, neighborhoods, business, schools, culture and sports.
How our reporting works
Boston Weekly is an AI-assisted newsroom. Each story starts from public reporting by Boston and Massachusetts outlets and government sources. We combine the facts from several sources into an original summary written in our own words, and we link every source we used at the bottom of the article.
Stories carry a Boston Weekly Staff byline with the desk that covers the beat, such as the Transit Desk or the State House Desk. Editors review our coverage, and sensitive stories — crime, courts, deaths, health, and anything involving minors — always go through an editor before they're published.
Images marked “Illustration: Boston Weekly” are editorial illustrations, not photographs of real events or people.
