Ranked: Top 10 Publishers in the U.S. By Market Share

The publishing world has been getting a lot of press lately. Ironic, isn't it? Between the upcoming holiday season, the impending cookiepocolypse, and the environmental implications of nonfungible tokens (NFTs), everyone's reading up on their favorite news providers. Digital subscribers are curious to see how publishers will adapt while still striving for both continued growth and innovation.

But that's much easier said than done, especially in such a competitive market – one that's shown a decline in readership following a significant coronavirus boom – a 12.4% decrease between October 2020 to 2021, to be exact.
