regional newspapers

Area print media

Regional newspapers serve a geographic area smaller than a nation but larger than a single city—a state, province, or multi-county region.

They cover local politics, business, and events that national papers ignore while still reporting major national stories.

The regional newspaper ran a series on water rights disputes between neighboring counties.

Many have declined as advertising shifted online.
