Red Wing Republican Eagle

The Red Wing Republican Eagle is a daily newspaper in Red Wing, Minnesota. The publisher is Steve Messick and the editor is Anne Jacobson. The Red Wing Republican Eagle publishes five days a week, Tuesday through Saturday, and has a daily circulation of about 6,200. A weekend supplement has a circulation in excess of 18,000. The first edition of the Red Wing Republican hit the streets on Sept. 4, 1857. It was a four-page edition produced by Lucius F. Hubbard, who had arrived by steamboat with an ancient hand press just a few weeks before. The 21-year-old tinsmith from upper New York state was ambitious. He would go on to become the ninth governor of Minnesota 25 years later. The newspaper became the Daily Republican on Oct. 12, 1885, and merged with the rival Daily Eagle in 1940. The Daily Republican Eagle's first edition came out Nov. 25 of that year. The newspaper dropped "daily" from its flag in 1969. Forum Communications Co. purchased the Republican Eagle in 2001.
