History

Rowan and Cabarrus County's leading local news source since 1905.

History stood firmly against the chances of The Salisbury Evening Post's survival in 1905.
Scores of newspapers had lived and died in Salisbury, establishing the city's reputation among journalists of the day as the "newspaper graveyard" of North Carolina.
The Post published its first edition on Jan. 9, 1905, and boldly proclaimed itself "Salisbury's Leading Afternoon Newspaper," though it faced competition from the already established Salisbury Daily Sun and weekly Carolina Watchman.
A fire on May 12, 1912, destroyed the newspapers home, but the owners, Joe X. Roueche and Clint N. Brown somehow kept the paper going without missing an issue, publishing from Spencer.
The ownership of the Post changed later that year to an investor group headed by James F. Hurley, former owner of The Concord Tribune.
Hurley bought out the other original investors by 1919 and set on the path of establishing one of North Carolina's best mid-sized newspapers. The Post became the only daily newspaper in Rowan County and built steadily to a daily circulation of roughly 27,000.
The Hurley family sold the Salisbury Post to the Evening Post Publishing Co. of Charleston, S.C., in 1997 and it remains a part of that company today.
