The Minot Daily News is a newspaper printed in Minot, North Dakota. It was originally the Burlington Reporter, and was published out of Burlington until the early 20th century. It was at that time that it was transformed into the newspaper that is currently published.
It is the primary daily paper for north central and northwest North Dakota. Its average daily circulation is 21,848 on Sundays and 20,974 on weekdays.
The paper's editorial viewpoint is conservative to libertarian. In the past its coverage of the North Dakota legislature was unequaled, but in recent years the Bismarck Tribune has taken over the bulk of primary reporting of the session.
According to their website, the Daily news "serves the readers of North Central North Dakota including Ward County and the Minot Air Force Base, home to B-52H Stratofortress bombers and the 5th Bomb Wing and the 91st Missile Wing."
Famous quotes containing the words daily and/or news:
“What chiefly distinguishes the daily press of the United States from the press of all other countries is not its lack of truthfulness or even its lack of dignity and honor, for these deficiencies are common to the newspapers everywhere, but its incurable fear of ideas, its constant effort to evade the discussion of fundamentals by translating all issues into a few elemental fears, its incessant reduction of all reflection to mere emotion. It is, in the true sense, never well-informed.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“I don’t have any problem with a reporter or a news person who says the President is uninformed on this issue or that issue. I don’t think any of us would challenge that. I do have a problem with the singular focus on this, as if that’s the only standard by which we ought to judge a president. What we learned in the last administration was how little having an encyclopedic grasp of all the facts has to do with governing.”
—David R. Gergen (b. 1942)
