E Westfall
E Westfall is the new Publisher and Editor of Bensalem Weekly. A resident of the township for a decade, Eric launched the publication to solve a personal frustration: the constant struggle to find out what was actually happening in town. After years of missing grand openings, finding out about concerts too late, and digging through minutes to understand why school taxes were going up, he decided to build the solution himself. His goal for Bensalem Weekly is simple: to stop the "hunting and searching" and give residents one reliable place for both hard news and local life.
