About
The Muncie Post-Democrat is a variety site on Muncie’s local politics. Low budget, low staffed, and infrequent, we’re the most reliable news that Muncie, Indiana has to offer!
Originally started as a four-page weekly, the paper was founded by editor George R. Dale. Throughout the 1920s the paper was a rival against the Ku Klux Klan, machine politics, and the Paving Trust scandal perpetrated by the John C. Hampton administration. The paper later became something of a fireside chat when Dale himself held office as mayor, and after his death in 1936 it was continued by the rest of the family before ceasing in 1953. This iteration started in 2023 and stands against nearly identical corruption as before, not to mention the vast privatization happening here locally.
