Carthage Press returns

Posted online

The Carthage Press has returned six weeks after the 134-year-old newspaper closed.

It's now under local ownership via Rush-Hoover Media Group after its former owner, New York-based Gatehouse Media, shuttered the publication on Aug. 29.

The community now has two hometown newspapers. The Carthage Chronicle launched shortly after The Carthage Press closed.
