Description

The Boone County Journal has its roots in the old Ashland Bugle and Hartsburg Truth. The paper, as it did more than a century ago, covers the communities of Ashland and Hartsburg and the surrounding Southern Boone County area. The Journal was originated as a weekly newspaper by Dan Fishel in 1969. The paper went through three ownership changes before Jane and Dick Flink purchased the Journal in 1986. They enjoyed the longest run of ownership before selling the newspaper in April, 2001 to Bruce and Susan Wallace. Bruce Wallace was a daily newspaper publisher in Texas and Alabama before purchasing the Boone County Journal. He has gained experience in advertising, news and circulation by working for the Gannett Company and Boone Newspapers. He is a graduate of the University of Arkansas. While not working, Wallace and his family enjoy canoeing, camping and travel. He is also a bicycling enthusiast and enjoys watching Universtiy of Missouri Tigers sports...
