History

The newspaper can trace its origin to 1882. That year a newspaper called The New North began publication in Rhinelander. [3] In 1890, an Eagle River, Wisconsin newspaper called The Vindicator was formed; it later became The Rhinelander News in 1910. [3] During World War I, the publishers of The News decided they wanted daily coverage of the war, so they began publishing daily in 1917. [3] The News purchased The New North in 1947. [3]

The paper was formerly owned by Scripps League Newspapers, which was acquired by Pulitzer in 1996; Lee Enterprises acquired Pulitzer in 2005. [4] [5] [6] In 2006, Lee sold the Daily News to local ownership. [7]
