The Blue Mountain Eagle is a weekly newspaper published on Wednesdays in John Day, Oregon.
[15] Editor Scotta Callister left the paper in 2015 to become part-owner and interim publisher of the Malheur Enterprise, which had great success under her leadership and that of her husband, Les Zaitz.
During Williams' tenure, the Eagle's coverage of Aryan Nation's failed effort to establish a headquarters in Grant County earned a Pulitzer Prize nomination.
[17] In June 2024, EO Media Group announced Blue Mountain Eagle will cease print publication and go online-only.
All print subscribers will instead receive the East Oregonian, published weekly and including news from Blue Mountain Eagle's website.
