Serving Grant County as its primary source of news since 1868, this publication provides comprehensive coverage of local government, agriculture, and community events in rural Eastern Oregon. It is notable for its longevity and its role as a vital information hub for the remote, high-desert residents of the Blue Mountains region.

MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN OREGON

Early publishing routes along the Pacific Northwest coast established a highly localized print network that remains heavily divided between major metropolitan dailies and isolated rural community papers. The Advance Publications-owned Oregonian dominates Portland with the largest daily circulation in the entire region. Other significant publications include the EO Media Group-owned Bulletin in Bend, which serves the central high desert, and the historically notable Albany Democrat Herald, currently published by Lee Enterprises. The Portland market also sustains a dedicated cultural and alternative print network, anchored by the Asian Reporter and the Pulitzer-winning Willamette Week. Paperboy indexes 77 Oregon newspapers — browse the full directory below.
