History
The newspaper was first printed on July 21, 1926.[1] The paper was owned by Freedom Communications, a privately held California-based company, until 2012, when it was sold to Ohio Community Media, an affiliate of the private equity firm Versa Capital Management.[2]
In 2012, Versa merged Ohio Community Media, the Freedom papers it had acquired, Impressions Media and Heartland Publications into a new company, Civitas Media.[3] Civitas Media sold its Ohio papers to AIM Media Midwest in 2017.[4]
