Ann Arbor News

Ann Arbor News is a daily newspaper in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA covering local news, sports, business, jobs, and community events.

Founded in 1835, The Ann Arbor News put out its final edition on July 23, 2009 ending the newspaper's 174-year history. In March 2009, publisher Laurel Champion said that sharply declining revenue drove the decision. Champion said the "business model is not sustainable." Advertising revenue dropped more than 20 percent in January 2009 compared to the same month last year.

A new Web-based media company called AnnArbor.com LLC launched in place of the Ann Arbor News. The new company produces a local news web site and publishes a print edition twice a week called Ann Arbor.com.

Circulation: 47,058 copies

This newspaper is owned by Newhouse Newspapers.
