McClatchy is an American news and media company that publishes local and regional newspapers, digital news platforms, and related content products. Its publications provide reporting on local government, business, politics, sports, culture, and community affairs, while its digital operations offer online news, newsletters, mobile content, advertising, and subscription services.
The company traces its origins to 1857, when James McClatchy became associated with The Sacramento Bee in California. Over time, McClatchy expanded through acquisitions and operated newspapers in communities across the United States, including California, Florida, Kansas, Missouri, North Carolina, and Texas. Its portfolio has included The Sacramento Bee, The Miami Herald, The Kansas City Star, The Charlotte Observer, The News & Observer, and the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
McClatchy has historically generated revenue from print and digital advertising, paid subscriptions, newspaper circulation, and other audience and commercial services. The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2020 and was subsequently acquired by Chatham Asset Management. As a result, the McClatchy Company associated with the former NYSE American ticker MNI is no longer a publicly traded company.
