Flashback Frank - The Murfreesboro Press Newspaper Apr 29, 2021 at 08:00 am by Dalton Barrett
Did you know there was a locally published newspaper right here in Murfreesboro titled ‘The Murfreesboro Press’? It was published by Don Keith along with Editor Mike ‘Hammerhead’ West from June 1, 1978 till July 14, 1983.
The Murfreesboro Press was mostly a good news publication featuring soft news, critical journalism and, well, just fun news.
The front page of the first edition published June 1, 1978, featured ‘the hot weather retreat of Walter Hill dam’, ‘Sam Ingram selected as the next president of MTSU’, ‘Golfers disagree on the need for the proposed, yet to be built Old Fort Golf Course’. There was even a photo of seventh graders playing tug-of-war at Central Middle School’s annual field day right there on the front page.
