History

The Marysville Globe was founded as The Leader in 1891 and changed its name to The Globe on February 2, 1892.[2][3]

In August 2007, the Globe and Arlington Times were sold by Sun News to Sound Publishing.[4]

Sound Publishing suspended printing of several newspapers, including the Globe and Times, in March 2020 due to the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. By April, furloughs and layoffs at Sound Publishing left both newspapers without any staff.[5][6]

Delivery

Since November 28, 2007, the Marysville Globe delivers one paper to every home with a Marysville address or in the city urban growth boundary/city limits.[7]
