This past week the Jackson Parish Journal (JPJ) , which is the online digital newspaper dedicated to provide the most current news, sports and information involving Jackson Parish, celebrated it’s first year of publication.

On April 6th, 2020 the first edition was published. A grand total of 64 people was shown to have viewed it. From that modest start the JPJ has grown in one year into a journal that is now published twice a week (Wednesday/Sunday) and has a following of roughly 10,000 viewers per month. Access is made through Facebook, Google or Twitter and if desired you can receive directly by email, all at no cost to viewers. 

“I am very thankful to those who are viewing the paper each week as well as the business community who has shown their support by advertising,” said Editor/Publisher Ben Ledbetter. “It is the continued goal of the staff to provide the most current and timely news, sports and information involving Jackson Parish as possible.” 

The JPJ is part of the Journal Services, Inc. family, that now includes digital newspapers in Natchitoches, Winn, Bienville, Lincoln, Red River and Sabine parishes.
