Metro Philadelphia is a trusted source for local news, sports, entertainment, dining, and community coverage throughout the Philadelphia region. As a free daily newspaper and digital publication, Metro reaches readers both online and through print editions distributed at busy locations across the city, including SEPTA stations. Since joining O'Rourke Media Group in 2025, Metro Philadelphia has continued to expand its digital presence while remaining focused on the stories, people, and events that shape life in Philadelphia.
Metro Philadelphia’s mission is to provide the people of Philadelphia with quality, local journalism and help inform and educate readers. Our papers are distributed in drop boxes throughout the city, suburbs and along most SEPTA routes, allowing Metro to bring local, credible news to the fingertips of Philadelphians. Our mission is rooted in the belief that truth makes our city stronger and helps empower the communities we serve.
