Further inland, the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner has operated continuously since 1903, acting as the main print outlet for the Interior region. In the capital, Sound Publishing operates the Juneau Empire, which has covered southeastern coastal communities for over a century. Alternative reporting and cultural coverage are maintained by independent weeklies like the Anchorage Press and specialized regional outlets such as the Arctic Sounder.
