Latest News About Castanet

Here are the latest updates I can share about Castanet based on current publicly available information.

• Castanet expanded its regional coverage with a new South Okanagan newsroom, based in Osoyoos, to boost local reporting for Oliver/Osoyoos and surrounding communities. The team is led by journalist Sarah Crookall, with a local sales and advertising focus as well. This move aims to deliver more timely, on-the-ground stories for the South Okanagan-Similkameen region.

• Castanet has a history of regional bureaus in the Okanagan and Interior British Columbia, including Vernon, Penticton, and Kamloops, with more bureaus planned in nearby areas. The organization emphasizes expanding local news, public service ads, and regional business advertising through these bureaus.

• Castanet maintains its digital presence across multiple platforms (web, apps for iOS and Android) and uses social channels to share local news updates, classifieds, events, and more. Recent and older app listings indicate continued investment in mobile access for readers.
