Welcome Your New Editor of Westport Patch

Anthony Karge is the newest member of the Patch team.

It is with great pleasure that I am announcing your new editor of Westport Patch — Anthony Karge!

Karge is coming to Westport Patch after having reported in Westport for two years at the Westport News. He knows the town well and is committed to working hard for you covering everything from breaking news to government affairs, updating you on what's going on in the schools, covering the latest philanthropic efforts, business openings and closings and featuring friendly faces around town.

Prior to joining Patch and before his stint at the local paper, Karge interned for a film industry website based in Poland and for a nonprofit organization that provided resources for journalists at community newspapers. He holds degrees in journalism and creative writing from the State University of New York at Oswego.

In less than a year, Westport Patch has become a valued and trusted source of local news in town. As its founding editor, I am thankful for all the Patch users who visit the site daily, who tell their friends and family about us, and offer news tips and suggestions for the site. Please keep your comments coming!

I'll still be around town but will be taking on a larger role as the Associate Regional Editor for Patch in Fairfield County, helping the company grow and expand into towns such as Greenwich, Trumbull, Shelton, Weston, Redding, Norwalk and Stamford.
