The Glasgow Daily Times is a six-day afternoon daily newspaper based in Glasgow, Kentucky, and covering Barren County. It publishes on weekday afternoons and Sunday mornings. The newspaper is owned by Community Newspaper Holdings Inc. (CNHI), based in Birmingham, Alabama.
The newspaper originated in 1865 as the Glasgow Times weekly newspaper. It became a daily newspaper in 1953. The paper was owned by Glasgow businessman Carroll Knicely from the 1950s through 1977, when it was sold to Donrey Media, the company owned by Arkansas media magnate Donald W. Reynolds. Donrey added the Sunday ediiton in 1979. Donrey sold the Daily Times and many other of its holdings to the newly formed CNHI in 1997.
The Daily Times also owned and operated The Glasgow Republican for many years. The Republican was originally a competing weekly, but when the Times bought it in the 1960s, they continued to operate it as a weekly, largely using content from the previous week's Times editions, but still with a separate editor. When CNHI took over, the Republican was discontinued.

“Apart from letters, it is the vulgar custom of the moment to deride the thinkers of the Victorian and Edwardian eras; yet there has not been, in all history, another age ... when so much sheer mental energy was directed toward creating a fairer social order.”
—Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
“Re-born, he was in the other life, the greater day of the human consciousness. And he was lone and apart from the little day, and out of contact with the daily people.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“But a dog teaches a boy fidelity, perseverance, and to turn around three times before lying down—very important traits in times like these. In fact, just as soon as a dog comes along who, in addition to these qualities, also knows when to buy and sell stocks, he can be moved right up to the boy’s bedroom and the boy can sleep in the dog house.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
