The Daily Freeman, published in Kingston, New York, serves as the primary morning newspaper for Ulster County, as well as Greene County, Columbia County and Dutchess County. Established in 1871 under the moniker "Rondout Daily Freeman," the publication initially resided in Downtown Kingston within the Rondout–West Strand Historic District. However, in November 1974, it shifted its headquarters to the enduring locale of Hurley Avenue in Uptown Kingston.[2]

Notably, in 2021, under the stewardship of new owners, the MediaNews Group, the newspaper's administrative offices transitioned to 115 Green Street [3]

Operating as a unionized entity, The Freeman employees are represented by the Kingston Newspaper Guild. Presently, the newspaper falls under the ownership of 21st-Century Media, a subsidiary of MediaNews Group (formerly known as Digital First Media). Noteworthy is the ownership chain's association with Alden Global Capital, a prominent hedge fund known for its strategic acquisitions within the newspaper industry. Alden Global Capital's approach often involves rigorous cost-cutting measures, significant layoffs, and strategic real estate sales following the acquisition of target newspapers .[4]
