The Daily Star (Oneonta)


The Daily Star is a daily newspaper in Oneonta, New York, United States. It is owned by Community Newspaper Holdings Inc..
The Daily Star also publishes a weekly newspaper, the Cooperstown Crier, serving Oneonta and the nearby town of Cooperstown.
CNHI bought The Daily Star and Cooperstown Crier in late 2006 from Ottaway Community Newspapers, a division of Dow [Jones & Company].
Originally named the Oneonata Star, it was a weekly newspaper when purchased by James H. Ottaway Sr. in 1944; after adding it to his Ottaway Community Newspapers group, he changed the paper to a daily, complete with the adjustment to its present name.
As of 1932, the Oneonata Star operation had expanded the use of its publishing equipment to create the Otsego Publishing Company; it published the small run History and Genealogy of the Ancestors and Some Descendants of Stukely Westcott, written by Roscoe L. Whitman.
