OSAWATOMIE — Osawatomie has a new newspaper in town – the Osawatomie Journal.
Former KOFO staffer Jeff Gulley and former Louisburg Herald publisher Doug Carder have putting out the Journal for two weeks. The reaction to the newspaper has been enthusiastic, Gulley said. The new paper is capitalizing on community disenchantment with the long-time Osawatomie Graphic, which is now owned by a corporate newspaper chain, he said. Gulley said he considers it a compliment that readers tell him it takes so long to read the Journal because there are so many stories in it.
