The Forecaster is a regional newspaper in southern Maine that is published weekly and distributed for free. Formerly owned by MaineToday Media,[2] the paper and its different versions throughout the state were sold to the Maine Trust for Local News in August 2023.[3] In 2012, they announced a partnership with the Bangor Daily News in which they would collaborate on news-gathering and publish stories across the websites of both newspapers.[4]
