Rheinische Post is one of the allied new foundations in the post-World War II era.
NSDAP-opponents Karl Arnold, Anton Betz, Erich Wenderoth and (soon resigned) Friedrich Vogel received a British newspaper license.
The newspaper was established in 1946[3] and belongs to the Arnold, Betz, Droste, Alt and Ebel families.
It is part of the Rheinische Post Mediengruppe which also owns newspapers like the Saarbrücker Zeitung, the Lausitzer Rundschau or the Trierischer Volksfreund.
[4] The core distribution area stretches from the Bergisches Land to the Dutch border.
[9] Eva Quadbeck is part of the editorial staff of Rheinische Post and is in charge of the newspaper's Berlin office.
[citation needed] The web edition of Rheinische Post is called RP ONLINE and publishes recent news from North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, and the world.
The first printed edition of Opinio, which consisted of the best articles by readers, was first published on 16 February 2005.
