List of defunct newspapers of North Carolina explained

See also: List of newspapers in North Carolina. Most of the newspapers started in North Carolina in the 18th century no longer exist. The first newspaper, the North Carolina Gazette, was published in New Bern, North Carolina. These defunct newspapers of North Carolina were replaced by newspapers that started in the 19th century. With the progress of technology, introduction of social media, and trend towards corporate conglomerate ownership many newspapers did not survive in the 20th and 21st century.[1] [2]
