Peninsula Daily News
Serving as the primary source of local news for the Olympic Peninsula, this publication provides comprehensive coverage of community events, regional politics, and environmental issues unique to Washington’s northwestern corner. With roots dating back to the early 20th century, it remains a vital information hub for residents of Port Angeles and the surrounding Clallam and Jefferson counties.
MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN WASHINGTON
Pacific Northwest print media reflects a stark divide between heavily consolidated suburban weeklies and historically independent metropolitan dailies. The Seattle Times stands out as a rare, locally family-owned broadsheet boasting the highest circulation in the region, while The Spokesman-Review dominates the eastern half of the territory under long-standing Cowles Company ownership. Along the primary western highway corridor, the national chain McClatchy operates several vital mid-sized dailies, specifically the Tacoma News Tribune, The Olympian, and the Bellingham Herald. The metropolitan areas also sustain a notable alternative press tradition, anchored by the biweekly publication The Stranger.
