Jane Regan.

Jane Regan, founding News Director of Somerville Neighborhood News, will be leaving her position in May to pursue other journalism opportunities.  The staff and volunteers are sorry to lose Regan’s outstanding contributions to Somerville Neighborhood News.

Somerville Neighborhood News is a project of Somerville Community Access Television. Under Regan’s direction, and with university journalism students and community volunteers as its main reporters and anchors, the bi-weekly half-hour news program began broadcasting in October 2013. To date there have been 37 editions of the program, covering local events and issues that are important to Somerville residents. Somerville Neighborhood News has become a highly valued news source for City staff, community activists, and residents.  The program can be seen Tuesdays at 7:00pm on SCATV Channel 3, and on the SCATV website, www.SCATVsomerville.org/SNN.

Somerville Neighborhood News will continue to be produced through the leadership transition, as a search for a new, full-time News Director is currently underway.  For more information about the News Director position, visit www.SCATVsomerville.org/news.

Friends and supporters of Somerville Neighborhood News can come by for Regan’s Going Away Party on Thursday, May 7th at 7pm at Somerville Community Access TV (90 Union Square). RSVP to ejones@SCATVsomerville.org.
