Warren Intelligencer was short-lived newspaper
Published 7:00 am Wednesday, October 16, 2019
Newspaper owners and editors have often supported specific political parties. The Warren Intelligencer, a newspaper produced in Bowling Green from about 1847 to 1851, favored the Whig Party.
The editor, R.J. Smith, ran for the clerk of the House of Representatives’ office as a Whig in 1951. Later that year, during the week of Oct. 20, the Glasgow Reveille, a peer publication of the Intelligencer, published an article about the discontinuance of the Warren Intelligencer. No reason was given for the newspaper’s end.
