The paper just recently celebrated its 55th anniversary in 2019. The Moultrie News was started in 1964 as a tabloid shopper when the East Cooper area boasted less than 5,000 residents.

The Moultrie News is owned and operated by Evening Post Industries Company.

Vickey Boyd was named publisher in April 2002 just as the population of Mount Pleasant was beginning to explode.

Cecilia Brown is the current editor and has been employed with the company, serving in various capacities, since 2016.

The Moultrie News went digital in 2000, and now boasts three Facebook pages and several Twitter accounts.

The Moultrie News has grown to a circulation of 25,000 and serves Mount Pleasant, Isle of Palms, Sullivan’s Island, Daniel Island and parts of Awendaw.

Today the Town of Mount Pleasant has nearly 90,000 residents and stretches to the lower reaches of Awendaw. But this community newspaper has managed to maintain the flavor that was borne in those early years. From little league championship acknowledgements to honor roll lists, The Moultrie News has the small town feel where readers feel comfortable submitting their stories, accomplishments photos and more.

The Moultrie News sponsors two events annually.
