The Robesonian traces its heritage back to 1870,[4] when it was established by W.S. McDiamid, a Baptist preacher.[5] The Robesonian 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.[6] Civitas Media sold its properties in the Carolinas to Champion Media in 2017.[7]
