Today marks the beginning of the Brainerd Dispatch's partnership with USA Today.
On pages A9 and A10 of this edition of the Dispatch, readers will find national news stories from USA Today on President Donald Trump's speech to Congress, the kick-off of Women's History Month and on the growing rates of colon and rectal cancer, to name a few.
The goal behind the partnership with USA Today is to offer our readers more options. In a recent survey the Dispatch conducted, almost 70 percent of those responding said they look to the Dispatch for national news. As always, local news will remain the Dispatch's No. 1 priority.
While the print edition of the Dispatch is starting with two pages of national news from USA Today, up to 10 pages will be available on the Dispatch's e-edition. The additional pages will include more national news, lifestyle, entertainment, money and sports sections.
If a customer subscribes to the Dispatch for the full six-day Sunday through Friday subscription they will automatically be able to access our e-edition at no additional cost. Readers may also choose an e-edition subscription.
