The Eugene Daily News is a web site founded by Kelly Asay and Jeff Tunnell in 2011. It covers news, crime, events and culture for the Eugene area in the U.S. state of Oregon. [1]
The two founders had no background in journalism, and believed their technology experience would help them avoid problems other news outlets had encountered. [2] Serving as publisher, Asay was the only full-time employee as of 2011; [2] according to Nieman Labs, as of 2015, the annual revenue was less than $50,000. [3]
The 2017 book Media Control: News as an Institution of Power and Social Control cited the Daily News among several examples of local news outlets regularly publishing local mug shots with minimal context or follow-up reporting, a practice it labeled "media shaming". [4]
Commentary by publisher Asay has been quoted by the Register Guard , another Eugene newspaper, [5] and The Oregonian has picked up stories the News has covered. [6]
A different newspaper used the same name from 1931 to 1942. [7] It was also known as the Eugene Morning News and Eugene News. [8]
