===Media=== {{See also|List of newspapers in Michigan|List of radio stations in Michigan}} There are five daily [[newspapers]] published in the Upper Peninsula, ''[[The Mining Journal]]'' in [[Marquette, Michigan|Marquette]], ''[[The Daily Mining Gazette]]'' in [[Houghton, Michigan|Houghton]], ''The Daily News'' in [[Iron Mountain, Michigan|Iron Mountain]], the [[Daily Press (Michigan)|''Daily Press'']] in [[Escanaba, Michigan|Escanaba]], and [[The Evening News (Sault Ste. Marie)|''The Evening News'']] in [[Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan|Sault Ste. Marine]]. All but ''The Evening News'' are owned by [[Ogden Newspapers]], with the former being owned by [[Gannett]]. ''The Mining Journal'', is the only daily newspaper that publishes a Sunday edition, which is distributed, with the exception of Chippewa and eastern Mackinac counties, across the entire UP (the other six days are distributed in its local area only). Additional, there are monlthly<ref>https://marquettemonthly.com/</ref> and student<ref>https://thenorthwindonline.com/</ref> publications serving the region. The Upper Peninsula is home to eight [[television stations]], 15 [[AM broadcasting]] stations, and 90 [[FM broadcasting]] stations.<ref>https://northpine.com/michigan/tv-markets/</ref> Most of the UP lies within the Marquette [[List of television stations in North America by media market|media market]]. The eastern three counties of the peninsula are in the Cadillac-Traverse City market, while [[Gogebic County, Michigan|Gogebic County]] in the western UP is served by stations in the [[Media in Duluth, Minnesota|Duluth]] market, and [[Menominee County, Michigan|Menominee County]] in the southern UP is served by stations from the [[Green Bay, Wisconsin|Green Bay]] region. The peninsula's oldest television station is [[WLUC-TV]] in [[Negaunee Township, Michigan|Negaunee Township]], while the UP's longest continually operated radio station is [[WCCY]] in Houghton. Most of the region's radio signals originate from the population centers of Sault Ste. Marie, Escanaba, Marquette, or Houghton.<ref>https://northpine.com/michigan/radio/</ref> Due to the vast and sparsely populated geography of the UP, many of the FM stations operate at maximum [[effective radiated power]].<ref>https://transition.fcc.gov/oet/info/maps/fmzones/fmzones.pdf</ref>
