MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN OHIO
Historically divided among several distinct metropolitan centers, this Midwestern newspaper market features major dailies anchoring specific regional hubs rather than a single statewide publication. Advance Publications operates the Cleveland Plain Dealer, the region's largest daily by circulation. Further south, Gannett owns two major metropolitan outlets: the Columbus Dispatch and the Cincinnati Enquirer. In the northwest, the Toledo Blade remains independently owned by Block Communications, maintaining a locally rooted editorial presence since 1835. The Call and Post stands out as a historically significant African-American weekly circulating primarily within these urban centers.
