The News & Observer
U.S. center-left (editorial page); news coverage mainstream regional
The News & Observer is the daily newspaper of Raleigh, North Carolina. It is owned by McClatchy, which is controlled by the hedge fund Chatham Asset Management. Its news coverage follows mainstream regional standards, and its opinion pages lean center-left. I did not find a specific recent assessment of its stance toward the Trump administration. Its coverage focuses on how federal actions affect North Carolina, and its editorial board has historically been critical of Republican policies.
Owned byOwned by McClatchy Media Company, which has been controlled by the hedge fund Chatham Asset Management since its 2020 bankruptcy sale. McClatchy merged with A360 Media in 2024.
