MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN MASSACHUSETTS
Home to the first continuously published newspaper in the American colonies, regional press history is characterized by pioneering early publishers and modern corporate consolidation. The Boston Globe, owned by John Henry, dominates as the largest daily, while the tabloid-format Boston Herald, owned by MediaNews Group, provides a conservative editorial counterweight. Beyond the capital, Gannett controls major regional dailies like the Telegram & Gazette in Worcester and The Patriot Ledger in Quincy, alongside Advance Publications' The Republican in Springfield. Specialized reporting continues through the Bay State Banner, an African-American weekly founded in 1965. Paperboy indexes 181 Massachusetts newspapers — browse the full directory below.
