The Gannett-owned Indianapolis Star dominates statewide circulation and regional reporting. In the northern industrial corridor, Lee Enterprises operates the high-circulation Times of Northwest Indiana, while the South Bend Tribune and the Evansville Courier & Press serve their respective border regions under Gannett ownership. Maintaining rare local independence, the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette remains a family-owned daily.
