Media in Greater Sudbury - Print

Print

Sudbury's daily newspaper is the Sudbury Star, owned by Quebecor's Sun Media division. The newspaper with the highest circulation is Northern Life, a community paper which publishes twice a week.

Several local neighbourhoods within the city are also served by weekly community papers such as The Valley Vision and South Side Story. There are also student newspapers at the city's postsecondary institutions: Lambda and L'Orignal déchaîné at Laurentian University, The Shield at Cambrian College and L'Étudiant at Collège Boréal. The online conservative webzine Enter Stage Right began as a weekly column in Lambda.

Sudbury Coffee News is a restaurant publication delivered to restaurants, coffee shops, hotels and other establishments in the Sudbury area.

A francophone community paper, Le Voyageur, is published weekly. One of the longest-running Franco-Ontarian newspapers, L'Ami du peuple, was published in Sudbury weekly from 1942 to 1968. Le Voyageur commenced publishing shortly after L'Ami du peuple ceased.

Sudbury is also, along with Thunder Bay, one of the major centres of Finnish-Canadian settlement. An important historical Finnish newspaper, Vapaus, was published from 1917 to 1974. Arvo Vaara, an early editor of the newspaper, was convicted in 1929 on charges of sedition and libel after purportedly publishing unpatriotic remarks against King George V.

The magazines Northern Ontario Business, Sudbury Living and Sudbury Mining Solutions Journal are published by Laurentian Media Group, the publishers of Northern Life.

Famous quotes containing the word print:

    We that write & print have all our books predestinated—& and for me, I shall write such things as the Great Publisher of Mankind ordained ages before he published “The World”Mthis planet, I mean—not the Literary Globe.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    It will be the mistake of your life if you go into print in your own defence [sic]. Your denial will reach a new set of people and start them to talking, while the ones who read the original charges will never see the refutation of them.
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)

    The country of the tourist pamphlet always is another country, an embarrassing abstraction of the desirable that, thank God, does not exist on this planet, where there are always ants and bad smells and empty Coca-Cola bottles to keep the grubby finger- print of reality upon the beautiful.
    Nadine Gordimer (b. 1923)
