The Forum of Fargo-Moorhead, previously titled the Fargo Forum, is a daily newspaper printed in Fargo, North Dakota owned by Forum Communications. The Forum, as it is commonly known, is the primary daily paper for southeast North Dakota, and also much of northwest Minnesota. Its average daily circulation is 62,097 on Sundays and 51,106 on weekdays. The editorial viewpoint is center-right. The Forum was first published on November 17, 1891. The Forum is also co-owned with radio station WDAY-AM (not WDAY-FM though) and TV stations WDAY and WDAZ.

On October 26, 2006, Forum Communications announced without further comment that Peggy Bellows was no longer the editor of The Forum. She had been editor of The Forum since May 2005, when she was hired to replace the late Lou Ziegler, who had died of cancer. Matthew Von Pinnon, the paper's Managing Editor, will handle editorial responsibilities until a successor is found.
