Woodstock's newspaper began as two papers, The Bugle and The Observer in the neighboring town of Hartland. The papers merged to become the Bugle-Observer and today provide all of Carleton County with the latest news and events. In 2008 The Bugle Observer will celebrate its 100th Anniversary in the Woodstock market, one of the oldest newspapers in New Brunswick.The Bugle-Observer is published Tuesday and the Bugle-Observer Weekend is distributed Friday. The paper is owned by the Irving family's
Brunswick News . The paper has gone by the name of "The Bugle" since the early 1980s until it was sold to Brunswick News in 2003. Before being called "The Bugle", the paper was called "The Carleton Sentinel". The paper in neighboring town Hartland, the "Observer", was bought by Brunswick News soon after. Brunswick News combined both paper's staffs into one office in Woodstock, publishing each paper separately for a short time before combining them into one single edition to cover both towns and surrounding areas.Brunswick News owns all of
New Brunswick 'sEnglish language daily newspapers and the majority of the weeklies.In September 2007, publisher
Ken Langdon resigned from the "Bugle-Observer" and joined with local entrepreneur Dwight Fraser to launch a rival newspaper independent of Brunswick News called the "Carleton Free Press ". Brunswick News launched an unprecedented court action to prevent Langdon from using his alleged insider knowledge to place the "Bugle-Observer" at a competitive disadvantage.External links
