History

After acquiring it from the Howe family in 1951, publisher Paul Allingham and Winnie Allingham[4] sold the journal in 1979 to Thomson Newspapers. Purchased in 1993 by American Publishing,[5] it was owned by News-Press & Gazette Company until August 1, 2023, when it was transferred to CherryRoad Media.

In 1989, its publisher, Larry Sarvey, was murdered at his home after being shot twice by a shotgun. The case was never solved.[6]
