History

The Southern Illinoisan was created in 1947 when Lindsay-Schaub Newspapers of Decatur, Illinois, purchased three area newspapers—the Daily Free Press of Carbondale, the Murphysboro Daily Independent and the Herrin Daily Journal—and merged them into a single publication.[2][3] Lee Enterprises purchased the Southern Illinoisan and other Lindsay-Schaub papers in 1979.
