The Daily Reporter Closing on 12/12/2025

Message From The Daily Reporter:
 
The Daily Reporter is proud to have served as Franklin County’s daily law journal since 1896 and it’s with sincere regret that we announce our closure. Our last publication will be the Dec. 12, 2025 issue, therefore as of this date, we no longer are available to accept new public notices.
 
The rise of the internet and digital media have impacted the newspaper industry nationwide. Print publishers have been battling with declining subscription and advertising numbers while costs for production of the print product steadily have climbed.  
 
We were no exception to this phenomenon. That and the constant battle in the legislature regarding the necessity of print notices, finally took their toll.
 
To all of those with whom we’ve worked  over the years, including staffs of the courts, sheriff’s department and government offices throughout the county: We thank you. It has been an honor, and we still believe in the value of the printed public notice.
