Hartford Courant - The largest daily newspaper in the U.S. state of Connecticut, and is the oldest continuously published newspaper in the United States

17-05-2018

(USKings.us) A morning newspaper serving most of the state north of New Haven and east of Waterbury, its headquarters on Broad Street are a short walk from the state capitol. It reports regional news with a chain of bureaus in smaller cities and a series of local editions.

The Connecticut-based newspaper was established in 1764 by printer Thomas Green as the "Connecticut Courant" and is known for being America's oldest newspaper in continuous publication, according to its website. In fact, the Courant's slogan to this day is "older than the nation." The publication boasts some impressive historical moments, too.

Today, the Hartford Courant is owned by the Tribune Co., and boasts a daily circulation of 120,000.
