The Daily Southerner was a four-day (Monday and Wednesday through Friday) a week newspaper primarily serving the town of Tarboro, North Carolina, U.S., and surrounding Edgecombe County, North Carolina. It ceased publication May 30, 2014.
The paper, founded in 1826, was purchased by the American Publishing Company (later Hollinger International) in 1991. Community Newspaper Holdings purchased the paper from Hollinger in 2000. The News & Observer of Raleigh, NC, reported that Community Newspaper Holdings closed the newspaper because it could not "sustain itself economically despite efforts to reduce costs by reducing frequency of publication, and outsourcing production and printing operations." Nine employees lost their jobs.
