Fergus Falls Daily Journal

Fergus Falls Daily Journal

The Daily Journal is a community-focused newspaper that comes out five days a week, highlighting the stories of Fergus Falls and its neighboring areas. It aims to provide an accurate account of local events through fair reporting, helpful advertising, and engaging features, including photos and commentary. While it strives to highlight positive aspects of the community, it also addresses the challenges faced by residents. For almost 125 years, The Daily Journal has been an integral part of Fergus Falls. It was established in 1873 by A. J. Underwood and remained in his family until the mid-1980s, when it was acquired by Thomson Newspapers. In December 1992, Boone Newspapers Incorporated took over its operations until July 2019, when Wick Communications, a family-owned media company, purchased it. Wick Communications operates various newspapers, websites, magazines, and specialty publications across ten states, with its main office located in Sierra Vista, Arizona. Its publications can be found in states including Arizona, Alaska, Colorado, Idaho, Louisiana, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, and Washington.
