It was a matter of time.
The Indianapolis Business Journal is much better than what remains of Indianapolis Star in its dimmed down state .
Agreed.
Came here to post that too.
Totally 100%. That’s why I subscribe to IBJ, but not to IndyStar. So much more consistent quality with IBJ.
I find both to be integral to our city and state. The coverage patterns for each do not fully overlap and we would miss even more important news without them both. Do I love every piece created by the Star? No, but that’s always been the case in daily journalism. The Star is doing what it can with what it has in 2025 under the often mindless thumb of Gannett. It’s not 1995 anymore.
Neither are perfect, both are better than the alternatives.
Could be worse … look at what WIBC was and what it is now …
I was a loyal Star reader since Jr. High School. Finally cancelled my subscription in 2015. To Geoffrey’s point I often wonder how successful the paper would be if it went back to its pre-Gannett days. No doubt it started to struggle earlier but the product with Gannett is ridiculously poor.
+ 1k, picked up my mother in laws paper this am from her drive, what a waste the print edition has become.
This was only a matter of time, between the end of Circle Centre and the fact that the Star now only has a newsroom of 60! people. What a shameful decimation by their corporate owners.
Yes, we knew the Star move to CCMall was a temporary tenant deal to help fill the Nordstrom space, especially after they finally got out of the Penn-NY Street location, which was a nightmare for employees and visitors alike. Gannett’s priority of ideology over quality news, including the comic page, seemed contrary to the normal goal of making money while providing a desired product. The old pre-Gannett reporters would have loved having two street level bars like the Century Building will provide.
Ideology over quality news? How about priority of profit over quality news? The litany of knowledgeable reports with decades of experience that they chased out was ridiculous. And they did that in every market they were in.
Throw in the decimation of the advertising business, and giving their product away for free on the Internet … and here we are.
IIRC the story was the Pulliam trust specified the paper couldn’t be sold unless the alternative was bankruptcy …
I think the Star has really good sports coverage which is its current strength; both on the professional/college front but it really does a good job reporting on all of the high school sports – more so than years past.
Agreed that IndyStar is a shadow of it’s former self. That said, I’m still impressed that their reporters get some good scoops ! The National attention on USA Gymnastics was a Star-initiated story. Same with the recent Thomas Cook shenanigans. Go get ’em IndyStar !!
I lost all respect for the Star when they kept Gregg Doyle after the Catlin Clark and Pascal Siakam fiasco. The guy’s a real creep and just writes for click bait. Safe to say that its only a matter of time before they’re gone.
