| About Us: Frederick J. Wilson III founded
the South County Independent after a long and distinguished career
as a newspaper publisher. His intent was to produce a weekly
newspaper that would not be beholden to corporate interests.
Together with his investors, he formed South County Newspapers, and
the first edition of the paper was printed on Oct. 16, 1997. The
paper was successful from the start, attracting many subscribers in
its first year and quickly gaining a reputation for quality. In
2000, three years after its opening, the paper was named Newspaper
of the Year in its circulation category by the New England Newspaper
Association, and it won the same honor in 2005. The paper also has
won numerous awards from the New England and Rhode Island press
associations, and in 2004 won first place in the General Excellence
category of the New England Press Association's annual Better
Newspaper Contest. |
