November 2026 · what covers Mishawaka now
Mishawaka in November 2026 has a weekly of its own, a daily from across the river, and its valley's television news made inside its own limits. The Enterprise stands in the industry's current planning data — the American Newspaper Representatives' 2025 Indiana file — as a paid weekly publishing on Thursday, at ZIP 46546; the current national list of Indiana newspapers likewise carries The Mishawaka Enterprise among the state's living weeklies. It is the same paper the directories have followed since 1920, and its descent from Ireland's Free Press makes it, on the founding testimony printed whole above, a hundred and seventy years from its birth year, give or take the two the record argues about. The daily of record is the South Bend Tribune, Gannett's since the 2019 sale the South Bend record carries, in print and at southbendtribune.com, whose coverage treats Mishawaka as a home beat. WSBT-TV, Sinclair's since 2016, broadcasts from 1301 East Douglas Road, Mishawaka — the station's own contact page gives the address today — the Schurz building of 2008 still housing the valley's largest newsroom inside the city it was built to cover. What no longer exists: a Mishawaka daily, a Mishawaka Democratic organ, a factory house organ, a farm paper — and a time when the town's news was made anywhere but in the valley the two cities share.
