The Brimbank & North West Star Weekly is a weekly suburban newspaper that serves a broad section of outer western Melbourne suburbs including Sunshine, Braybrook, St Albans, Deer Park and Ardeer. The paper is delivered for free each Tuesday to an estimated circulation of 78,261. The paper also has an online news website that is updated on a daily basis.

History

The paper was originally known as the Sunshine Advocate and commenced publication on 1 March 1924, being the first registered newspaper in the district.[1] It was founded by Clarence Carlton, who remained the proprietor and editor from 1924 until 1965,[2] when it was acquired by Cumberland Newspapers.[3] In 1995 it became known as the Brimbank Advocate, then finally in September 2010 the connection with the Advocate name ceased when the publication was renamed the Brimbank Weekly.[4]

In January 2015, Fairfax Media, then publisher of the Brimbank Weekly, acquired Metro Media Publishing Holdings, publisher of competing local newspaper the Star Weekly.[5] The two newspapers were merged and became known as the Brimbank & North West Star Weekly.{{cn|date=July 2017}}
