The owner of New Jersey’s largest newspaper says it will stop publishing a daily print version of the paper early next year, but its online version will continue. The decision announced Wednesday was due to rising costs, decreasing circulation and reduced demand for print copies of the Star-Ledger.

“We fought as hard as we can for as long as we could,” said David Blomquist, The Journal’s editor and publisher. “An online-only publication simply would not have enough scale to support the strong, politically independent journalism that has distinguished The Journal.
The final print editions of the Star-Ledger, Times of Trenton and South Jersey Times will be published on Feb. 2. The final weekly print edition of the Hunterdon County Democrat will be published on Jan. 30, and its subscribers will have access to the Star-Ledger online newspaper. “Today’s announcement represents the next step into the digital future of journalism in New Jersey,” said Steve Alessi, President of NJ Advance Media. “It’s important to emphasize that this is a forward-looking decision that allows us to invest more deeply than ever in our journalism and in serving our communities.”
Alessi said that that ceasing print publication will allow NJ Advance Media to reallocate resources to strengthen its core newsroom. He said that the newsroom has more reporters than it did a year ago and has plans to continue to grow in 2025 as the organization looks to bolster reporting in previously under-covered areas of the state.
