About Somerton
Our Journey Begins: 2012
Somerton was founded in 2012 with a vision to bring accurate and unbiased news to the heart of Somerton and its surrounding communities. We recognized a growing need for reliable local information, as traditional media often overlooked the unique stories and issues that matter most to these areas.
