Addison County Independent

About Us

The Addison Independent was founded in 1946 and has always been a family-owned independent newspaper. Current publisher/editor Angelo Lynn has been at the helm for more than 30 years.

The Addison Independent is as much a part of the local community as many of the institutions covered on the front page.

Being a community newspaper means that the AI's award-winning editorial staff covers local events in a way that's different from a large metropolitan or regional daily. The AI also provides readers everything they need to know about local entertainment and events.
News is printed at no charge, while advertising is bought and sold; the only way to guarantee space in the paper is through paid advertising.

In addition to the printed edition, the AI has a thorough and user-friendly website and regular email newsletters, and also provides digital marketing services to local and regional partners.
