News & Messenger
The News & Messenger is a daily newspaper that is published in Manassas, Virginia and is one of a number of competing local papers covering the Washington, D.C. suburbs and exurbs in the region. Potomac News is owned by Media General, which also publishes the weekly Stafford County Sun.
The Potomac News and Manassas Journal Messenger combined into one daily paper called the News & Messenger. The Woodbridge office has been closed and all the printing and page layout is now done in other cities. The publication is based in the Manassas office.
The Potomac News rose to national prominence twice in the 1990s, first with its coverage of the John and Lorena Bobbitt scandal (both were Manassas residents) and then later for its coverage of the Beltway sniper attacks.
