Moorefield Examiner

5
The Moorefield Examiner has been owned by the same
family since 1902 when Samuel Alexander McCoy
purchased the paper from his partner, G. W. McCauley.
Following his death in 1935, Mr. Sam’s daughter
Katherine and her husband, Ralph E Fisher, became the
second generation of publishers. In 1969, their
daughter, Phoebe, returned to run the paper with her
mother. Phoebe and her husband, David O. Heishman,
continue running The Examiner today. They have been
joined by the fourth generation, their son James.

Hardy County’s only locally owned and operated
newspaper is published every Wednesday by the family
corporation, the R. E. Fisher Company, Inc. It is
located at 132 South Main Street, Moorefield.

The Examiner has a tradition as an award winning
editorial page which continues today. It is the only
paper which cares about the people and events
affecting Hardy County. As the county grows, The
Examiner hopes to grow with it and continue providing
news, commentary and information for its readers.
Right now the total paid circulation is 4,800 with
3,300 distributed in Hardy County.
