The landscape is dominated by the locally owned Star Tribune in Minneapolis, claiming the highest circulation in the Upper Midwest, alongside its historic rival, the St. Paul Pioneer Press, operated by Alden Global Capital. Further north, Forum Communications manages the Duluth News Tribune, a key daily for the Arrowhead region since 1868.
