The Charlotte Ledger (Opinion)
U.S. local, business-oriented, generally centrist
The Charlotte Ledger is an independent local newsletter in Charlotte, N.C. It is owned by its founder and paid for mainly by subscribers. Its coverage centers on local business, development and civic topics. I found no evidence of a consistent stance, supportive or critical, toward the Trump administration. Its opinion material appears to be limited and local in focus.
Owned byIndependently owned by founder Tony Mecia, a former Charlotte Observer journalist. It has no corporate parent, and the evidence I found does not show any outside investors.
