About the American Press:

 

Owned by the Shearman family since1943, the American Press was Southwest Louisiana's first daily newspaper, originally founded in 1895 under another name.  The paper's roots go back to1893, when the Weekly Press was started. By 1985 it had become a daily newspaper, becoming the Daily Press. Meanwhile, land developer J.B. Watkins moved his New York newspaper, the American, to Lake Charles in 1897. It became the Daily American. The Daily American and the Daily Press went head-to-head until they merged in 1910. Together, they were the Lake Charles Daily American-Press. Over the years, words were dropped from the name, making the paper simply the American Press. The American Press has enjoyed its greatest successes during the Shearman’s ownership. Its achievements began with the newspaper's crusade in the 1950s against illegal gambling and have since included national and regional awards in all facets of news gathering, Pulitzer Prize nominations for writing and photography, and top honors for excellence in advertising as well as Web-site design.
