THE INDEX-JOURNAL
My role
My role as the government reporter is to keep our readers informed about their City and County government. As a staff writer at the Index-Journal, my role is to bring new and exciting stories for our readers. I also cover non-profit events, feature stories, economic development and state/local elections!
Local newspaper, local reporting
The Index-Journal has been owned by Greenwood families since it was founded on February 6, 1919. The paper's original owner was Harry L. Watson, who was also editor and publisher for more than 50 years. The IJ has a rich history within the City of Greenwood, as the community has grown, so has its newspaper.
The Index-Journal reports local government, education, arts and entertainment and sports stories across Greenwood, Abbeville, Laurens and McCormick counties.
