In a world of increasing advertising options, newspapers continue to be the most trusted medium and the top choice for shopping and checking advertising.

We offer a comprehensive selection of quality digital and print products to help grow business and more easily navigate the market’s competitive media landscape.  Located in Corning, The Leader is a publication serving the Corning-Painted Post area in New York State, and reaches thousands of homes daily. The Leader, originally titled “The Corning Journal,” has been a proud publication for the area since 1847, when it was initially published as a family-owned weekly. The Leader, and the total market coverage product, The Corning Penny Saver, were purchased by GateHouse Media in 2012. 

The Leader is now a daily publication with strong community ties and a focus on providing relevant, interesting news and content that the community can trust. The Leader has grown significantly over the past several years and offers a number of valuable services, including community outreach programs, a full range of digital display ads and digital services through Propel Marketing, our sister organization. In addition, The Leader publishes The Horseheads Shopper, a shopper distributed weekly. These services, in combination with our print media, have allowed The Leader to grow into a digital and print pillar of marketing and advertising success in our region.
