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. Paperboy indexes 115 Washington newspapers — browse the full directory below.
