The Delaware County Daily Times is a daily newspaper, published in the Primos section of Upper Darby Township, Pennsylvania in the United States. It is one of the only major newspapers in the state to be branded with a county name rather than a city. It has a politically liberal bent and is known for its colorful "Sound Off" feature.
The newspaper began as the Chester Daily Times in 1876. Its current name was adopted in 1959 and its offices left the economically declining City of Chester, Pennsylvania for Primos, an unincorporated postal designation in Upper Darby Township. According to the Journal Register Company, it has the largest circulation of any suburban paper in the Philadelphia area. The Sunday edition is known as the Delaware County Sunday Times.

Rash judgements, nor the sneers of selfish men,
Nor greetings where no kindness is, nor all
The dreary intercourse of daily life,
Shall e’er prevail against us.”

As a matter of fact there are times when I am apt
To feel it close in tight against my sense
Like a caul in which I was born and still am wrapped.”
