Timmins Daily Press
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Timmins Daily Press is a newspaper in Timmins, Ontario, which publishes six days a week. It is notable as the first paper bought by press baron Roy Thomson, who would eventually own more than 200 newspapers including The Times of London. In something of a strange twist of fate, the paper was later sold to Hollinger, a company founded by Noah Timmins, after whom the city of Timmins is named.
The Daily Press is now owned by Quebecor through its Osprey Media division.
The Daily Press had an average daily circulation of 8,523 in the six-month period ending in March 2007, down from 9,522 in September 2005. [1]
In January 2007 the Daily Press dropped Chapleau and Hearst from its circulation routes. The paper's move to axe those towns from its regular circulation was a response to its dropping distribution levels. Those towns now receive the paper one day after its publication date.
