Description | The 19th-century Mississippi newspaper lineage leading to the Clarion-Ledger began with the Eastern Clarion in 1837, evolving into the Daily Clarion and Standard in 1866. With a Democratic stance, it fiercely opposed Reconstruction efforts, advocating for Governor Adelbert Ames' removal in 1876. Despite setbacks like a probable arson in 1869, it persisted, covering significant events such as the Centennial Exposition and legislative acts. Consolidating with the State Ledger in 1888, it became the Clarion-Ledger, a Pulitzer Prize-winning newspaper still published today, known for its influential role in Mississippi politics and longstanding commitment to journalistic excellence. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1866 of this newspaper. |
