How the Rating is Determined
  • Profile
The News-Star is a daily newspaper that was first published in 1890 in Monroe, Louisiana. It was founded by Major William D. Bernstein. Currently, The News-Star is owned by Gannett, a large American media holding company. Based in Louisiana, The News-Star provides coverage focused on local news, sports, entertainment, and lifestyle in the northeastern region of Louisiana. In addition to local updates, the newspaper also offers state, national, and world news. **One interesting fact**: Over its long history, The News-Star has seen several ownership changes and mergers. Its name is also a result of a merger between two newspapers, The Monroe News and The Monroe Star, in 1929. The combined strength of the two led to the foundation of a news source that has been a prominent voice in Louisiana for nearly a century.
thenewsstar is ranked N/A among other media sources and has an average of 8,334 monthly visits according to Similar Web.
