The Centre Daily Times is a daily newspaper located in State College, Pa, in the United States. It is the hometown newspaper for the Pennsylvania State University, one of the most well-known and largest universities in the country with more than 40,000 students attending the main campus. The Nittany Lions fuel much of this attention.
The Weekly Times was founded in 1898 and was later renamed The State College Times. In 1934, the paper became a daily, the Centre Daily Times. It was purchased by Knight Ridder in 1979. A Saturday morning edition was added in 1980, and a Sunday edition was launched in 1982. The Centre Daily Times became a morning paper in 1986. The McClatchy Company purchased Knight Ridder in June 2006, thereby acquiring the Centre Daily Times.
Home delivery is available to all of Centre County and parts of Blair, Clearfield, Clinton, Huntingdon and Mifflin counties. In addition, single copy sales reach several more counties, especially during college football season.
