The Atchison Globe is a weekly newspaper published in Atchison, Kansas that was founded in 1877 by E. W. Howe. Also having an online presence,[2] it was acquired in 2023 by CherryRoad Media.[3]
After acquiring it from the Howe family in 1951, publisher Paul Allingham and Winnie Allingham[4] sold the journal in 1979 to Thomson Newspapers. Purchased in 1993 by American Publishing,[5] it was owned by News-Press & Gazette Company until August 1, 2023, when it was sold to CherryRoad Media.[3]
In 1989, its publisher, Larry Sarvey, was murdered at his home after being shot twice by a shotgun. The case was never solved.[6]
