John Puerner succeeded Lifvendahl in 1993, who was replaced by Kathleen M. The newspaper was renamed the Orlando Sentinel in 1982. Harold 'Tip' Lifvendahl was named president and publisher in 1981. In 1973, the two publications merged into the daily Sentinel Star. Andersen eventually bought both papers outright in 1945, selling them to the Tribune Company of Chicago in 1965. Then known as the Morning Sentinel, it bought the Reporter-Star in 1931, when Martin Andersen came to Orlando to manage both papers. Another Orlando paper, the South Florida Sentinel, started publishing as a morning daily in 1913. The Reporter became a daily newspaper in 1905, and merged with the Orlando Evening Star in 1906. The Sentinel 's predecessors date to 1876, when the Orange County Reporter was first published. The newspaper's website utilizes geo-blocking, thus making it unaccessible from European countries. This company was acquired by Alden Global Capital, which operates its media properties through Digital First Media, in May 2021. The Orlando Sentinel is owned by parent company, Tribune Publishing. It was founded in 1876 and is currently owned by Tribune Publishing Company. The Orlando Sentinel is the primary newspaper of Orlando, Florida, and the Central Florida region.
