The Creston News Advertiser is an online newspaper in Creston, Iowa, United States, and is printed three days a week.[2][3]
History
The newspaper was started by Frank B. Thayer and Joel R. Hill, a Kansas City banker, in 1928 as a result of the merger of two newspapers, the Creston Evening News and the Creston Daily Advertiser.[4][5] Creston Evening News was founded as a weekly in 1879 and began daily circulation in 1881.[6] The Creston News Advertiser was purchased by Shaw Media in 1946.[7] The paper ever since has managed by a subsidiary called Creston Publishing Company.[6] The company has also published the Fontanelle Observer and the Adair County Free Press since 2017.[8]
