The Point Pleasant Register is a newspaper in Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Circulation is limited to Mason County and nearby areas. The newspaper was founded in 1893.
Today, the newspaper follows the unusual schedule of publishing Tuesday-Friday mornings, with a "weekend" edition delivered at mid-day on Saturday.
The newspaper generally only covers local events, and the Huntington Herald-Dispatch and the two Charleston newspapers circulate widely with more broad coverage.
The paper was formerly owned by Heartland Publications. In 2012 Versa merged Ohio Community Media, the former Freedom papers it had acquired, Impressions Media, and Heartland Publications into a new company, Civitas Media.[1] Civitas Media sold the Register to AIM Media Midwest in 2017.[2]
