Overview
The newspaper, first published in 1956, was one of three Civitas-owned Dayton, Ohio–area community papers that ceased publication on August 9, 2013.[1][2] The paper was formerly owned by Brown Publishing Company and Amos Press.
The paper, which was known locally as the "K-O Times", primarily served Kettering and Oakwood, Ohio, suburbs south of Dayton.
Its most famous columnist was local housewife and humorist Erma Bombeck, whose column first appeared in its pages.[3] Ted Rall's editorial cartoons were also first published in the "K-O Times".
In 1971, the paper's women's section, edited by Anita Richwine, won the Penney-Missouri Award for General Excellence.[4]
