History

The history of the Missoulian dates back to 1870, when a pair of businessmen decided the Missoula Valley would be a good place to start a newspaper. The first press, loaded onto a wagon that was pulled by a four-horse team, came from Helena and arrived in Missoula in August 1870; the paper that would eventually be called the Missoulian first came out on Sept. 15, 1870. At the time, it was called the Missoula and Cedar Creek Pioneer; by 1873, though, the paper’s name had been changed to the Missoulian.

In 1959, Anaconda sold the Missoulian and its other Montana papers and properties to Lee Enterprises of Iowa. In 1985, the paper moved to a new home on the banks of the Clark Fork River in downtown Missoula.
