The Daily Progress (often referred to as "the Progress") is the area's only daily newspaper. It is owned by Richmond-based media conglomerate Media General.
The first issue of the newspaper was published on September 14, 1892 by James Hubert Lindsay & Frank Lindsay. The brothers printed 200 copies on a used Campbell flatbed press at 112 Fourth Street, NE. James Lindsay was the newspaper's founder and publisher.[1]
Partnership with Charlottesville Tomorrow
In August 2009 the Daily Progress began publishing stories written by Charlottesville Tomorrow, contributed at no cost.[2].
