The Port Orchard Independent is a weekly newspaper serving Port Orchard and southern Kitsap County, Washington. It is owned by Sound Publishing, an imprint of Black Press,[2] and is part of the Kitsap News Group's weekly publications.[3]
History
[edit]In 1890, there were two local newspapers serving Port Orchard: the Broad Ax and the Kitsap County Pioneer.[2] Walter L. Wheeler purchased the two papers and merged them under the name the Sidney Independent, which was later renamed the Port Orchard Independent. Wheeler remained the owner and publisher of the paper until he sold it to W. L. Thompson & E. E. Brooks in 1899.[4]
Awards
[edit]The Port Orchard Independent has won multiple awards from the Washington Newspaper Publishers Association for its news, advertising, special sections and photography.
