History

The Young Witness was first published in 1909. It has since undergone several name changes as well as absorbed several other newspapers from the Young region. It acquired the assets of the defunct Burrangong Argus in 1913. In 1923 the title changed to Daily Witness but reverted to Young Witness in 1931. In 1947, the newspaper absorbed The Young Chronicle. The title was changed to South West News Pictorial in 1961 and this name remained until 1993 when it was merged with The Young Times. At this point the name reverted again to The Young Witness and it is still published under that name. The former editor is Craig Thomson. Rebecca Hewson is the Witness' journalist.

Digitisation

The paper has been digitised as part of the Australian Newspapers Digitisation Program project of the National Library of Australia.
