The Daytona Beach News-Journal is a regional daily serving Volusia and Flagler Counties in Florida, owned since 2019 by Gannett — now USA TODAY Co. — the country's largest newspaper chain. Its parent company rebranded in November 2025 and, under pressure from the second Trump administration, dropped DEI-related language company-wide and ended presidential endorsements across its 200-plus outlets. The paper itself draws center ratings from independent bias monitors and supplements its diminished local staff with reprinted content from the USA TODAY Network.
