The Lebanon Express was a weekly newspaper in Lebanon, Oregon. It was owned by Lee Enterprises.[1] The paper ceased publication in January 2023.[2]

History

The Lebanon Express was first published by Jacob H. Stine on March 5, 1887. Stine left the paper after a year. In 1987, Hugh Yandel Kirkpatrick merged the Lebanon Express with the Lebanon Advance to form Lebanon Express-Advance. The name was changed back to the Lebanon Express in 1912.[3]

Robert Hayden owned the Lebanon Express for 34 years until selling it in 1970 to the Democrat-Herald Publishing Co.[4] Capital Cities purchased the company in 1980,[5] which itself was acquired by The Walt Disney Company in 1995.[6] Disney sold its Oregon newspapers to Lee Enterprises in 1997.[7]

The paper published its final edition on Jan. 18, 2023 and rolled coverage of the area into The Albany Democrat-Herald.[8][2]
