The Cleveland News Leader was a Sunday morning newspaper printed from 2004 to 2009 in Cleveland, Mississippi. The newspaper was founded by David Johnson, who served as its editor and publisher. The paper earned a reputation as an unusually hard-nosed newspaper for such a small town, making a name for itself exposing government corruption. The CNL, as it was commonly called, earned its reputation for fearless community journalism.
