MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN OXFORD

Print media in this northern Mississippi college town is defined by a distinct split between a longstanding community publication and a prominent collegiate press. The Oxford Eagle, founded in 1868, serves as the primary local news source covering Lafayette County and is currently managed by Boone Newsmedia. Operating alongside it is the Daily Mississippian, an independent, student-run newspaper for the University of Mississippi campus that functions as the only daily collegiate paper in the state. Paperboy lists 4 newspapers in Oxford.
