The Daily Nonpareil is a daily newspaper serving Council Bluffs and a 10-county area of southwest Iowa.
History
[edit | edit source]The Daily Nonpareil is southwest Iowa's largest newspaper.[2] It was founded on May 2, 1857.[3]
The paper was acquired in 2011 by Berkshire Hathaway, when it bought the paper's then parent, the Omaha World-Herald and its other subsidiary newspapers in Kearney, Grand Island, York, North Platte, and Scottsbluff, Nebraska.[4] The World-Herald acquired partial ownership in 2000 and full ownership in 2007.[5]
In 2020, Lee Enterprises purchased BH Media Group's newspapers. This purchase included The Daily Nonpareil, the Clarinda Herald-Journal, the Shenandoah Valley News Today, the Logan-Woodbine Twiner, and the Denison Bulletin-Review. On March 16, 2020, Lee officially took over as The Daily Nonpareil's parent company.
Unusually, the paper made a dual-party endorsement in 2016, endorsing both Bernie Sanders and John Kasich, as the best-qualified nominees of the two major parties.[6]
From 1965 to 2000, it was owned by several newspaper chains,[7] including Thomson Newspapers[8] and MediaNews Group.[9]
Starting June 20, 2023, the print edition of the newspaper will be reduced to three days a week: Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Also, the newspaper will transition from being delivered by a traditional newspaper delivery carrier to mail delivery by the U.S. Postal Service.[10]
