Stakeholder tip line
Report news from Southeast Michigan.
One place to file a tip about local government, school boards, elections, and voting interests. Send it to a single newsroom or to every desk below at once — and to the Herald's shared database so nothing gets lost between newsrooms.
The Hamtramck Herald is part of the Kotcher family of organizations and editorially distinct from it. Kotcher funds the Herald's civic reporting; the Herald endorses no candidate, party, or ballot outcome.
Newsroom directory
Pick one desk, or all of them.
Detroit, Wayne County, Michigan, and Windsor desks only — outlets serving Washtenaw, Livingston, Monroe, Macomb, or St. Clair counties are excluded because they do not reach the Detroit or DPSCD electorate. Addresses marked unconfirmed should be reverified before a mass send.
