BATON ROUGE’S TRUSTED SOURCE

Serving Baton Rouge since 1842.

The Advocate has been the capital city’s most trusted news source for nearly two centuries. Baton Rouge readers look to us for award-winning coverage of state politics, LSU sports, entertainment news and much more. The Advocate’s audience reaches a wide footprint from Gonzales and Hammond north to Zachary, St. Francisville and Clinton and everywhere in between. Our audience is one with means. Readers of The Advocate are more educated, are likelier to own a home, and have a higher household income than the average Baton Rouge adult.

Couple our readership’s size with its propensity to spend and businesses have a powerful way to promote their brand or products in a meaningful way. For example, our audience is nearly the same as the COMBINED primetime audiences of the four largest television stations in Baton Rouge. That’s the power of The Advocate.
