The Tribune is an Americantwice weekly newspaper, published Wednesday and Saturday, inSeymour, Indiana. It is owned byAIM Media Indiana.
The publication covers the city of Seymour and all ofJackson County, Indiana.
Founded as theSeymour Daily Republican in 1885,[1] the newspaper adopted the nameSeymour Daily Tribune in 1920, shortening it toThe Tribune on September 10, 1994.[3]
More recently, the newspaper was owned byFreedom Communications, based inOrange County, California, at one point the 12th largest media conglomerate in the United States. Freedom declared bankruptcy in 2009 and, over the next three years, sold all of its television stations and its newspapers east of theRocky Mountains, includingThe Tribune.
The Tribune's buyer wasHome News Enterprises, a family business based inColumbus, Indiana, inBartholomew County, which adjoins Jackson County to the north. Freedom Communications CEO Mitch Stern called the sale "a natural evolution in a trusted relationship", noting that Home News had been printingThe Tribune under contract at its Columbus presses since 2008.[2]
