The Longview News-Journal is one of two major newspapers printed in the City of Longview, Texas - (the other being the East Texas Review). Dating back to 1871 under independent publishers, including James Hogg, later Texas governor, it was bought by Cox Newspapers in the 1980s. It is closely affiliated with the Marshall News Messenger, a Cox Newspaper published out of Marshall, Texas. Operating out of its modern 2-story brick editorial offices in downtown Longview, it has a circulation in 11 East Texas counties of about 30,000 customers on weekdays. (Source: Longview News-Journal) Its receptionist area contains several historical documents, including a copy of a telegram that Adolf Hitler wrote to the people of New London following the explosion in 1937 (See New London School explosion).
