Washington Missourian

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Washington Missourian is the Franklin County paper based in Washington, Missouri. The paper is owned by Missourian Publishing Company, a family-owned company. James L. Miller Sr purchased the paper in 1937, and turned the then-struggling local weekly into the award-winning paper that it is today.

In addition to news stories in Washington, the paper covers the nearby cities of Union, Saint Clair, and Pacific, as well as local stories from the surrounding areas.

It is the most read local paper inside Franklin County and is available and read in many Saint Louis County cities, such as Eureka. It has won and continues to win many awards for general excellence in its reporting, photography, and content.
