The Adirondack Daily Enterprise[1][2] is a daily (6 days per week)[3] newspaper published in Saranac Lake, New York.[4] It also covers Lake Placid, New York.[5] The two areas also have in common the two-site Adirondack Medical Center.
History
This newspaper, along with Lake Placid News, was purchased by William M. Doolittle Jr. in 1970.[2] Nearly fifty years later researchers uncovered that the newspaper, which "has trumpeted 'since 1894' for a generation in its masthead," originated in 1895. Moreover, it was "from the consolidation of two papers" (one named Adirondack Pioneer, the other Saranac Lake Enterprise).[6]
The Associated Press includes reports from Adirondack Daily Enterprise.[7][8] Other newspapers,[9][10] including The New York Times,[1] pick up some of their scoops[5] and stories.
The newspaper has a history of activism in local matters.[11] They opposed the renaming of a major regional college; their efforts "collected more than 3,200 signatures asking the college not to change its name."[12]
In 2026, Ogden Newspapers sold the Enterprise and the News to John DeAugustine, owner of The Daily Gazette.[13]
