MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN CONNECTICUT

Claiming the oldest continuously published newspaper in the United States, this New England market possesses a long press history that is now heavily defined by regional chain consolidation. The historic Hartford Courant, founded in 1764 and currently operated by Tribune Publishing, leads the circulation market alongside major dailies such as the Hearst-owned New Haven Register and the Connecticut Post in Bridgeport. Moving westward, the Republican-American in Waterbury maintains a prominent family-owned daily presence. Spanish-language weeklies like La Voz Hispana serve growing Hispanic demographics across the urban southern corridors. Paperboy indexes 96 Connecticut newspapers — browse the full directory below.
