Gannett

Gannett Co., Inc. is a diversified media and digital marketing solutions company and the publisher of USA TODAY and a network of more than 200 local daily newspapers across the United States. It now presents its corporate identity as USA TODAY Co. — www.gannett.com 301-redirects its corporate pages to www.usatodayco.com, and investors.gannett.com resolves to investors.usatodayco.com. Through the USA TODAY Network and LocaliQ, its digital marketing services arm for small and medium-sized businesses, Gannett delivers news, audience and advertising technology. Gannett publishes no developer portal, no API reference and no machine-readable API contract: developer.gannett.com and developer.usatoday.com both redirect to consumer sites, and no OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL, MCP or A2A surface is served on any of its hosts. What it does publish machine-readably is a publisher-side control surface — an RFC 9116 security.txt, a Global Privacy Control signal, an llms.txt on localiq.com, and a 958-line robots.txt that denies the major AI crawlers site-wide while re-allowing a commercial subset of shopping, money and sponsor-content paths.

Gannett is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Media, News, Publishing, Journalism, and Digital Marketing.

Gannett’s developer surface includes engineering blog, product news, and 20 more developer resources.

  detail: Gannett runs no developer program at all — developer.gannett.com 301s to the www.usatodayco.com corporate homepage
    and developer.usatoday.com 301s to the www.usatoday.com consumer news site, api.usatoday.com returns 404, and /openapi.json,
    /swagger.json, /api-docs and /.well-known/agent-card.json miss on every Gannett, USA TODAY and LocaliQ host; the only
    machine-readable documents it serves are a security.txt, a Global Privacy Control signal and a WordPress-generated llms.txt
    on the LocaliQ blog.
