History

The paper was founded in 1937.[2] Walter C. Taylor Jr. bought the paper, along with the nearby Gresham Outlook and several other Oregon papers, in the early 1960s.[3]

Robert B. Pamplin, Jr. acquired the Post from Lee Enterprises in 2000.[4]

In 2019 the Post won the General Excellence award for weekly newspapers from the Oregon Newspaper Publishers Association.[5]
