The Bladen Journal is a twice weekly newspaper, published in Elizabethtown, NC, which is located in Bladen County, NC. The Journal first began publishing in 1898 as The Clarkton Express. Surviving changes in ownership, it was given its current name in 1909. At present, the paper is published each Tuesday and Friday.[1]

The Journal was previously owned by Heartland Publications. In 2012 Versa Capital Management merged Heartland Publications, Ohio Community Media, the former Freedom papers it had acquired, and Impressions Media into a new company, Civitas Media.[2] Civitas Media sold its properties in the Carolinas to Champion Media in 2017.[3]
