By Alonzo Weston Verified| News-Press Now Verified Most of you know this post-holiday weekend for all the Christmas shopping bargains to be had. It’s ironic to me because all the consumerism comes just after we give thanks for all we have. Yes, Thanksgiving is mostly celebrated with gluttony and football instead of truly giving thanks, but we’re grateful to be able to enjoy those things as such. We have images in our minds of the supposedly first Thanksgiving with Native Americans and Pilgrims breaking bread on that day.

News-Press Now
News-Press NOW has a storied history, beginning with the St. Joseph Gazette, which first hit the presses in 1845, shortly after the founding of St. Joseph, and was the only newspaper sent on the first ride of the Pony Express. The newspaper was the original cornerstone of local journalism and has since evolved into a multimedia news organization. The late-20th century saw the News-Press expand its reach, modernize its processes, and diversify its content to meet the community's needs. Embracing the digital age, News-Press NOW launched an online platform that would become newspressnow.com, transforming how news is delivered. Real-time updates, videos, and live streams brought the news to life, engaging readers like never before. This digital shift allowed the News-Press NOW to reach beyond print, connecting with a broader audience. In television, News-Press NOW boasts affiliations with major networks like CBS, FOX, NBC, CW, and Telemundo. Each partnership enriches its programming mix, from hard-hitting news and thrilling sports to engaging entertainment and culturally relevant content, ensuring a diverse and dynamic viewing experience. Today, News-Press NOW remains a vital source of information in St. Joseph. By blending tradition with innovation, it continues to inform, engage, and connect the community. This enduring commitment to quality journalism, regardless of the changing mediums, is a testament to our integrity and dedication to serving the community.
