DOVER — Mega newspaper publishers Gannett and GateHouse Media plan to merge, the companies announced Monday. The deal will create the largest newspaper company in the country by far.
According to the Associated Press, the new company would own more than 260 daily papers in the United States, along with 300-plus weeklies. Axios reported the agreement means a single company would control about 16 percent of newspapers in the United States.
Gannett owns The News Journal/Delawareonline, while GateHouse’s Delaware publications include the Hockessin Community News, the Middletown Transcript, the Smyrna/Clayton Sun-Times, the Dover Post, the Milford Beacon and Sussex Living.
