The Dayton Daily News (DDN) is a daily newspaper published in Dayton, Ohio. It is a product of Cox Media Group Ohio (CMG Ohio), an integrated broadcasting, publishing, direct marketing and digital media company owned by parent company Cox Enterprises, which is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. It is the flagship publication of Cox Media Group Ohio.
The DDN has its headquarters at the Cox Media Group Ohio Media Center at 1611 South Main Street in Dayton, and is located near the University of Dayton campus. The newspaper’s editorial and business offices were moved there in April 2007. For more than 100 years the paper’s editorial offices and printing presses were located in downtown Dayton. Since 1999, the paper has been printed at a modern facility, the Print Technology Center near Interstate 75 in Franklin about 15 minutes to the south.
CMG Ohio also publishes two other daily newspapers and websites in Southwest Ohio: Journal-News (formerly The Middletown Journal and Hamilton JournalNews) and the Springfield News-Sun. CMG Ohio also publishes weekly papers Today's Pulse and Oxford Press, and had published several other weekly papers until CMG Ohio ceased their operations in January 2013, including The Western Star (Ohio), formerly the oldest weekly paper published in the state, the Pulse-Journal (Mason-Deerfield Township and West Chester-Liberty Township editions) and the Fairfield Echo.
In late 2010, Cox Enterprises merged all of its local media holdings under the CMG Ohio brand and consolidated locations to The Media Center. In addition to its print publications, the broadcast media includes WHIO-TV, the number one CBS affiliate in the nation, 7 Weather Now, the first digital station and only local weather station in Dayton, two of the market’s top-ranked radio stations, News Talk Radio WHIO (AM) 1290/95.7FM and country format radio station 99.1FM WHKO, and Dayton’s only classic hits station, WZLR The Eagle.
