History

The newspaper's first issue was published on February 14, 1987, the masthead reading "WE NEED A NAME!"[2][6] and was originally published monthly. The name Lewiston-Porter Sentinel was chosen from among suggestions made by readers, and appeared in the masthead for the first time with the second issue on March 14, 1987.[6] The newspaper changed from monthly to weekly frequency on October 3, 1992.[2]
