The Champaign–Urbana Courier was an American newspaper published from 1877 to 1979, serving Champaign County, Illinois.
Founded as the Champaign County Herald in 1877 by S.C. Harris, it was purchased in 1879 by Milton W. Mathews.
[2] Lindsay-Schaub Newspapers, owner of the Herald and Review papers in Decatur, Illinois, owned the Courier from 1934 until its closure.
When Lindsay-Schaub was sold to Lee Enterprises in early 1979, the Courier was not included in the purchase.
Attempts to find another buyer failed, and the Courier published its last edition on March 31, 1979.
