History Edit

The Weekly Chronicle was founded in July 1889 by Thomas Scammons and J. E. Whinnery. It switched to daily publication the following year, renaming itself The Daily Chronicle.[3] The Chronicle was purchased by the Lafromboise family in 1968 and was under the ownership of Jeraldine Lafromboise for several decades.[4] In 2011, The Chronicle switched to publishing three editions per week due to declines in revenue, instead publishing digital editions on the remaining days.[2] Lafromboise Communications sold The Chronicle to the Taylor family, owner of The Silver Agency in Chehalis, in 2021.[5]

The organization was served a legal notice in September 2023 from Joe Kent, a runner-up in the 2022 election for Washington's 3rd congressional district, that requested a retraction of The Chronicle's reporting of a March 2022 town hall meeting. Kent stated that the reporting included defamatory statements regarding whether or not he agreed with viewpoints brought forth by members of the audience that promoted white nationalism.[6]
