History

Founded in 1965, the Mississauga News is characterized by its coverage of local issues, including those relating to civic politics, arts and entertainment, sports, crime, and recreation. "The Mississauga News" publishes two city-wide editions weekly, in addition to a weekly newspaper that targets apartments, condos and townhouses and The Mississauga Booster, a source of grass-roots information.

The Mississauga News was named Best All-Round Newspaper in the 2010 Canadian Community Newspaper Association's Better Newspaper Competition.

Ken Nugent is the Regional Publisher of a newly amalgamated Peel Region and South West Ontario Division of Metroland, doing so since 2009, when former publisher Ron Lenyk moved to Torstar's head office. Lenyk had been publisher for more than 30 years.[6]

Upon Eve Adams' election as an MP in Stephen Harper's Conservative government, in the 2011 federal election, a seat in the City of Mississauga council was made available. "In the interest of ensuring fair and unbiased coverage for all candidates running in the Sept. 19 Ward 5 by-election," all stories about the vote and candidates were defaulted to not allow comments.[7] One reader replied that, since the retirement of former Editorial Director Judy Imerson, editorials were perpetually biased to conservatives "at all levels of government."[1]

The Booster

The Mississauga Booster also publishes on Thursday, with a distribution of approximately 75,000 households.
