The Observer Media Group

Indeed, few if any, of this country’s Black newspapers can match THE OBSERVER’s record of publishing a publication the size of 300 pages and larger; or top the unprecedented recognition given to THE OBSERVER for its outstanding historical, governmental and youth coverage; or equal the consistent publishing leadership of the paper with its supplements and special editions.

Six times THE OBSERVER has been named the nation’s top Black newspaper, symbolized by receiving the John B. Russwurm trophy, given annually by the National Newspaper Publishers Association.

In fact, now after nearly six decades of service, THE OBSERVER has been honored with more than 700 local and national awards for journalism excellence and outstanding community service.
