The Daily Independent (also known as The Independent Weekend Edition and formerly known as The Independent from 2003 to 2015) is a morning newspaper covering the city of Ashland and surrounding areas of Boyd County, Kentucky. Previously published daily, the print schedule was reduced to five days a week (Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays as a "Weekend Edition") in April 2020. It is owned by CNHI. It does not publish on Christmas day. Launched December 17, 1896 as the Tri-State Independent Col. G. F. Friel of nearby Catlettsburg, Kentucky, the newspaper moved to 12th Street and Greenup Avenue in Ashland in 1900 as the Ashland Daily Independent; it absorbed the Ashland Commercial in the move. The first publication after the move was on December 17. The offices later relocated to 17th Street two years later, when it purchased the Ashland Daily News and discontinued it in that year. In 1920, it founded the Sunday Independent, and five years later, it doubled the size of its headquarters on 17th Street. More information...
