About The Daily Townsville
Independent local news for Townsville. Founded to give the capital a credible, daily, reader-funded paper of record.
We cover local, Queensland and federal politics, the city's finances and business, community life, sport and the institutions that make Townsville. Our mission is to report fairly, attribute every claim and link readers to original sources.
We are based in Townsville. We do not publish AI generated photography, we do not republish third party copy in full, and we do not host unmoderated reader comments. Every story carries a named human byline.
