The Seaside Signal is a weekly newspaper published for the community of Seaside, Oregon, United States.[2]

History

The Seaside Signal was founded Saturday, March 25, 1905 as a weekly. It was edited by Robert M. Watson. The paper was a tabloid format and cost $2.00 for a year's subscription. On May 11, 1907 the newspaper changed to a broadsheet format. Since then, the Signal has changed formats numerous times.[3][4] In 1910, Watson retired and leased the paper to Erle Norton Hurd and Walter B. Scott.[5][6]

In December 1927, Hurd sold the Signal to Max Schafer Sr. along with Raymond Herald owners C.S. Beall and Harry Beall.[7] Schafer Sr. operated the paper with his son Max Schafer Jr. for decades until selling it in 1974. The new owners were H.H. Publishing Co., a corporation operated by three publishers: Dave Juenke, Walter Taylor and Lee Irwin.[8]

In 1980, Juenke sold the Signal to Scripps-Ifft Newspapers Inc.[9][10] The company sold the newspaper to Swift-Pioneer Publishing Co. in 1983, which later became Swift Communications.[11][12] A subsidiary called Pacific Coast Newspapers operated the Signal, along with the Tillamook Headlight-Herald and The News Guard in Lincoln City.[6]

In February 2003, the Signal was sold to Kyle Larson,[13] who sold it again in June 2005 to Tom and Annie Mullen and Gary and Sue Stevenson of Sheridan, Wyoming, and Robb and Jenn Hicks of Buffalo, Wyoming.[14] The newspaper changed ownership for fourth time in seven years when in October 2007 it was sold to Country Media, Inc.[15] In 2013, the paper was acquired by EO Media Group.[16] In October 2024, EO was sold to Carpenter Media Group.[17]
