  Introduction to Oregon News Media.

Oregon is a US state that is located in the Pacific Northwest region of the country. The state has rivers like the Columbia River and the Snake River that delineate its land with US states Washington and Idaho. California and Nevada are the other two neighbouring states of Oregon.

History of Oregon Newspapers

Oregon witnessed a great migration drive in 1843. As many as 3000 people settled in Oregon City, which welcomed the state’s first newspaper the “Oregon Spectator” on February 5, 1846. The newspaper inspired one of its editors — George L. Curry — to leave The Oregon Spectator to start publishing a newspaper of his own under the title “The Oregon City Free Press” in 1848. The press that published the newspaper was made of wood and scrap iron, though the publication survived for less than eight months.

Rev. John Smith Griffin started publishing a religious newspaper called the “Oregon American & Evangelical Unionist” at Tualatin Plains on June 8, 1848. The Weekly Oregonian was among those numerous newspapers that started publishing in the early 1850’s. The Morning Oregonian and many more entered the media scene as more people migrated West. Nine years later, Oregon became the 33rd state of the United States.

Current State of Media

According to a report published by the Columbia Journalism Review in 2018, the number of statehouse reporters in Oregon started to decline in the mid-2000s. The report quoted many of the past and current members of the press saying that the coverage of state politics has been compromised. It also mentioned a partnership between the Pamplin Media Group and the East Oregonian group that allowed them to share two statehouse reporters to gather all news related to the state government.

Recently, during the George Floyd protests in 2020, Oregon saw only independent journalists covering all the events with local media covering some of them and national media doing nothing.
