The DULUTH NEWS TRIBUNE (known locally as The Tribune or DNT) is a newspaper based in Duluth, Minnesota. While circulation is heaviest in the Twin Ports metropolitan area, delivery extends into northeastern Minnesota, northwestern Wisconsin, and Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The paper has a limited distribution in Thunder Bay, Ontario. The News Tribune has been owned by Forum Communications since 2006.
The present incarnation of the DULUTH NEWS TRIBUNE is the outcome of the merger and takeover of several earlier publications.
The first News-Tribune was created as a result of the merger of the Duluth Tribune and another daily paper, the Duluth News in 1892. In 1929, this morning paper was purchased by The Duluth Herald. The pair were merged in 1982 to form the NEWS-TRIBUTE & HERALD, shortened simply to Duluth News-Tribune in 1988. In 2000, the hyphen was omitted, leaving DULUTH NEWS TRIBUNE as the paper's title.
