The Sporting News was founded in 1886 by Alfred Henry Spink, a native of Quebec who was involved in the sporting and journalism subculture in St. Louis, Missouri. Spink established the weekly newspaper to cover a variety of sports, including baseball, horse racing, and professional wrestling. Over the years, The Sporting News became known as the "Bible of Baseball" and was essential reading for players, officials, and fans. Today, The Sporting News covers a wide range of sports, including soccer, cricket, golf, tennis, rugby, AFL, and MMA. The website is now owned by Sporting News Holdings, an international investment group with deep experience in sports, media, and gaming. Based in Charlotte, North Carolina, The Sporting News has expanded its global reach, with localized editions in Canada, Australia, and Japan, and plans to launch additional international editions in the near future. **One interesting fact**: Despite facing significant economic challenges that forced many newspapers to close, The Sporting News has managed to maintain continuous publication for nearly 140 years. Even during the transition of ownership after the founder's passing in 2021, the newspaper did not miss publishing a single issue, demonstrating its resilience and importance to the sports media landscape.
