The Gleaner, as it is called locally, is part of Brunswick News Inc., which is privately owned by James K. Irving. Irving's father, K.C. Irving, bought it in 1968 from Michael Wardell, who had owned it since 1950.[2]
The paper has its roots in the earlier paper The Gleaner and Northumberland Schediasma, started in 1829.[3]
