Its weekday circulation is 11,383 and its Sunday circulation is 12,488.[1][2] It is the newspaper of record for Josephine County.[3]
History
The first year it was published, the paper was known as the Grant's Pass Courier.[4] From 1886 until 1919, it was named the Rogue River Courier.[4] The name was changed again to Grants Pass Daily Courier to avoid confusion after the town of Woodville changed its name to Rogue River.[4] Much of the success of the paper in its first few decades has been attributed to A. E. Voorhies, its longtime publisher.[5] The paper briefly published a daily bulletin in 1898 during the Spanish American War, and established regular daily publication schedule in 1910.[5]
The Daily Courier is the oldest continuously published newspaper in Southern Oregon. It took the title in 2019 when the Ashland Daily Tidings closed.[4][6] When the Courier became a daily in 1910, Grants Pass was the smallest city in the world to have leased wire service from the United Press.[6]
The Daily Courier received the 2018 Baker Public Service Award from the Oregon Newspaper Publishers Association for its coverage of the Taylor Creek and Klondike wildfires.[7] Reporters for the Daily Courier won the Bruce Baer Award for Oregon journalism in 1988 and 1992, as well as a special recognition in 1987.[8]
When the Medford Mail-Tribune suddenly closed on January 13, 2023, the Daily Courier said it hoped to expand its coverage area to fill the gap.[9]
