The Daily News is the primary newspaper of Longview, Washington, Kelso, Washington, and much of Cowlitz County, Washington. It is owned by Lee Enterprises, which acquired the newspaper with its 2002 purchase of Howard Publications. Howard, in turn, had purchased the paper from Ted and John Natt, grandsons of John M. McClelland, who had purchased it from Robert A. Long, the lumber magnate and father of Longview. Long founded both Longview and The Daily News in 1923.
When nearby Mount St. Helens showed signs of instability in 1980 and subsequently erupted, The Daily News scrambled to cover the crisis. The paper's staff won the 1981 Pulitzer Prize for Local, General, or Spot Reporting. The photography of Roger A. Werth was specifically cited.
