The E.W. Scripps Company: Local News, National Networks, and a Spelling Bee Bringing America Together
SHERIDAN, WYOMING – April 14, 2026 – The E.W. Scripps Company is a U.S. media organization with a stated mission of creating a better-informed world. Built around the belief that doing well commercially and doing good for the public are the same goal, Scripps operates across local television news, national cable and streaming networks, sports broadcasting, and the Scripps National Spelling Bee. The company describes its work as creating connection — bringing audiences together across communities, platforms, and experiences. For viewers who follow local news, watch national cable channels, catch live sports, or tune in to one of television's most distinctive educational competitions, Scripps is very likely already part of their media diet, even if the brand name behind the content is not always the one they see on screen first.
