The Daily News-Record and its predecessors have been the lifeblood of information for Harrisonburg and the Shenandoah Valley, as well as several counties in neighboring West Virginia, for over 100 years. Today, the News-Record publishes over 28,000 copies a day for readers in four Virginia counties and three counties in West Virginia. The total estimated readership daily is more than 70,000 (based on the nationally-proven formula of about 2.5 readers per issue).
