Delaware State News

The Delaware State News has served Dover and Downstate Delaware since 1953.

The seven-day daily is published by Independent Newsmedia, Inc. USA. The company is owned by a unique trust that enables this newspaper to pursue a mission of journalistic service to the citizens of the community. Since no dividends are paid, the company is able to thrive on profit margins below industry standards. All after-tax surpluses are reinvested in Independent’s mission of journalistic service, commitment to the ideals of the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, and support of the community’s deliberation of public issues.

Readers of our Facebook page should note that comments may be used in our print publication in a feature called "Delaware Sound Off." The purpose of the feature is to provide a forum for issues facing our state and communities.
