The Powdersville Post has been serving, Powdersville and northeastern Anderson County since 1997 under the ownership of Jerry Vickery and in association with The Easley Progress. It was owned by Mid-South Communications in the early years of the 21st century and was sold to Heartland Publications in June 2007. In late 2012, Versa Capital Management LLC, a private equity investment firm, announced the creation of Civitas Media LLC, a new community news media company that combines four media entities owned by Versa: Freedom Central, Heartland Publications, Impressions Media and Ohio Community Media.
Our goal of giving readers a balanced and fair account of what goes on in this community and elsewhere in the world will never change, while the means through which we deliver your community news and information has expanded rapidly. Today, our community members can take their news in print two times a week, through e-mail daily, online and using their mobile devices anytime, as well as through live streaming broadcasts from locations around town.
In alliance with The Easley Progress, the Pickens Sentinel and their websites, we reach nearly 100,000 community members across our various products monthly. The Post seeks to provide the news the community needs, reported faithfully and fully, with respect for all and favor to none.
To accomplish this mission, we set for ourselves the following goals:
