The Fairfield edition of the Southeast Iowa Union is a participant in the Iowa Newspaper Association. [7]
History
The Southeast Iowa Union was launched in 2019 from the merger of three newspapers: the Washington Evening Journal, The Fairfield Ledger, and Mt. Pleasant News. [1] [2] On Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday readers receive the Southeast Iowa Union. On Thursday readers receive their old local newspaper. [2]
The Gazette bought the three newspapers in 2016. [1] [8] [9] In 2021, printing operations were moved from Cedar Rapids to Des Moines, Iowa. [10]
In July 2022, The Gazette purchased four weekly newspapers – the Star Press-Union of Belle Plaine, the Marengo Pioneer Republican of Iowa County, Williamsburg Journal Tribune, and Poweshiek County Chronicle Republican of Grinnell – from Gannett (owners of The Des Moines Register). Editorial, advertising and business functions of the four weekly newspapers, the oldest title of which dates to 1856, are based in Washington; editorial content had been overseen by the Register under previous ownership. [11] The four newspapers cover Iowa, Poweshiek and Benton counties, and areas of western Johnson and northern Keokuk counties.
