The Intelligencer

Local news from The Wheeling Intelligencer and News-Register, the Ohio Valley's leading provider of news, sports and information. West Virginia’s oldest newspaper, older than the state itself, The Intelligencer has stood guard for 159 years against predatory interests which would violate civil rights. The Intelligencer was founded on August 24, 1852. Likewise, the Wheeling News-Register, founded on Sept. 22, 1890, continues a legacy of tradition in the Wheeling, W.Va., market. The Intelligencer and Wheeling News-Register cover news, sports, community events and other items in the Northern Panhandle of West Virginia and Eastern Ohio.
