Along with ''[[The State (newspaper)|The State]]'' in Columbia and Charleston's ''[[Post and Courier]]'', it is one of the three largest papers in the Palmetto State. ==History== The Greenville News started off as a four page publication in [[1874]]. For a one year subscription it was eight dollars. After five different owners and many editors, the Peace family bought the paper in 1927; around the same time that Greenville was becoming known as “The Textile Center of the South.” Shortly thereafter, The Piedmont, a small afternoon paper, began printing. Then In 1995, the smaller afternoon paper and the larger morning paper merged to become The News-Piedmont. Later that same year, Gannett purchased the newspaper and became the new owner, changing the name to The Greenville News. Today '''The Greenville News''' prints over 100,000 newspapers a day. ==Publications== Besides The Greenville News itself, the company also publishes a newspaper/magazine called Link. It features local entertainment, news, photos, reviews and more.
