Description

The Commonwealth Journal, Pulaski County's only daily newspaper, serves South Central Kentucky daily Tuesday through Sunday circulating more than 10,500 newspapers.

The Commonwealth Journal is the product of the merger of two weekly newspapers: The Somerset Journal, founded in 1895, and The Commonwealth, founded in 1912.

The Somerset Journal was edited by Cecil Williams, who had entered the newspaper profession at the age of 17, making him the youngest editor in Kentucky. Williams continued to publish The Somerset Journal until his death in 1942. His wife, the late Mrs. Murray K. Rogers, assumed the duties of publisher of The Somerset Journal after his death, until the paper merged with The Commonwealth and became a daily in 1966. She remained co-publisher of the daily until the newspaper was sold to Park Newspapers of the Cumberlands, Inc. on May 1, 1988.
