MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN CHICAGO
Remaining one of the few American markets anchored by two competing major dailies, the local print landscape features deeply rooted metropolitan broadsheets, suburban dailies, and an influential alternative press. The circulation leaders are the historic Chicago Tribune and the now nonprofit-owned Chicago Sun Times, both of which command massive regional readership. They are complemented by specialty publications like the Chicago Defender, an iconic institution for the African American community, and the Chicago Reader, a long-running alternative weekly. Paperboy lists 28 newspapers in Chicago.
