The Star-Ledger is the largest circulation newspaper in New Jersey. It is based in Newark, New Jersey.
In 2007, The Star-Ledger's daily circulation was reportedly more than the next two largest New Jersey newspapers combined, and its Sunday circulation was larger than the next three papers combined.[4] It has suffered great declines in print circulation in recent years, to 180,000 daily in 2013, then to 114,000 "individually paid print circulation," which is the number of copies being bought by subscription or at newsstands, in 2015.[2]
In July 2013, the paper announced that it would sell its headquarters building in Newark.[5] In the same year, Advance Publications announced it was exploring cost-saving changes among its New Jersey properties, but was not considering mergers or changes in publication frequency at any of the newspapers, nor the elimination of home delivery.[6]
The Star-Ledger is a sister paper to The Jersey Journal in Secaucus, The Times in Trenton, and the Staten Island Advance, all of which are owned by Advance Publications, headquartered in One World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan.
