The Star-Ledger

The Star-Ledger is a prominent daily newspaper that has played a significant role in New Jersey's media landscape since its formation in 1939. It emerged from the merger of the Newark Star-Eagle and the Newark Ledger, becoming the state's largest news source. Known for its comprehensive coverage of local, state, and national news, the newspaper has earned multiple Pulitzer Prizes for its high-quality journalism. The Star-Ledger primarily offered daily print editions that included news, sports, business, and cultural events. It also recognized outstanding high school sports teams with the annual Star-Ledger Trophy. As print circulation declined, the company shifted its focus to digital media, transitioning to an online platform under NJ Advance Media Group. NJ.com now serves as the main news source for New Jersey residents, attracting millions of unique visitors and providing timely updates on various topics. The Star-Ledger remains a key player in delivering news to the state's diverse population.
