Bluefield Daily Telegraph

The Bluefield Daily Telegraph is a newspaper based in Bluefield, West Virginia,[2][3] and also covering surrounding communities in McDowell, Mercer and Monroe counties, West Virginia; and Bland, Buchanan, Giles and Tazewell counties, Virginia (including the town of Bluefield, Virginia).

A print edition is distributed Tuesday through Saturday.

The Bluefield Daily Telegraph was launched on January 16, 1896, by long-time editor Hugh Ike Shott,[2] who at one point controlled Bluefield's newspaper, both leading radio stations, and only television station.

Nobel Prize winner John Forbes Nash Jr., a Bluefield native, worked for a time as an inserter, hand inserting sales pieces into the Bluefield Daily Telegraph before going on to a distinguished career in mathematics.
