The Exponent-Telegram is the daily newspaper in Clarksburg, West Virginia. It publishes seven days a week in the morning.
History
The Telegram was founded in 1861 as a weekly and went daily in 1902. The Exponent was founded as the News in 1910 . It changed its name to The Exponent in 1920. The two papers came under common ownership and became daily morning and afternoon newspapers, respectively (with a combined Sunday edition), in 1927. (Virgil Highland, one of the owners of The Telegram, was instrumental in the merger of the two under the Clarksburg Publishing Co., also formed in 1927. He became company president.) In 2001, the papers merged.
