The Pioneer Press is a newspaper based in Saint Paul, Minnesota, serving the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area. It is owned by MediaNews Group and is a competitor of the Star Tribune. The paper traces its history back to the Minnesota Pioneer and the Saint Paul Dispatch, which were merged in 1985 to become the St. Paul Pioneer Press and Dispatch. It transitioned to a morning-only paper in 1990 and dropped the 'Dispatch' from its name. The paper is commonly referred to as the 'Pi Press'.
