History
The La Crosse Tribune was founded in 1904 as a result of public dissatisfaction and distrust created by a light and power monopoly in La Crosse.
The Tribune has been at 401 N. Third St. in downtown La Crosse since moving into a new building in 1973. The building was in the mid-1990s to accommodate a regional distribution center. It is part of the River Valley Newspaper Group which includes:
- Two daily newspapers: The La Crosse Tribune and Winona Daily News;
- Seven weekly papers: Coulee News, The Jackson County Chronicle, Holmen and Onalaska CourierLife, Houston County News, Tomah Journal, Vernon Broadcaster & Westby Times;
- Four weekly Foxxy Shoppers covering Sparta, Tomah, Viroqua, La Crosse Wisconsin, and Winona Minnesota;
- A monthly "Home Buyers Guide"; and
- Several special publications covering many aspects of River Valley life.
