A story of impactful journalism.

Journalism is at the center of Cox’s story, beginning with a single newspaper our founder, James M. Cox purchased in 1898. He was a staunch defender of the First Amendment and saw news as a vital public service. That’s what continues to drive us today.

Every day, our journalists do something remarkable: inform and empower readers with in-depth reporting and analysis to help build a better future. Join us in that effort.

Our businesses

Making our communities better is what Cox is all about, and one way we do that is through the essential journalism of the AJC.

The Dayton Daily News is where our story began back in 1898 and is a big part of the Cox DNA — it’s where the company started and where we’ll keep investing in the future.

Axios, part of the Cox family of businesses, is a news and technology company built by journalists that covers topics and trends with an audience-first approach.
