The Southern Tribune is a family owned, weekly community newspaper covering news in the southwest Georgia counties of Calhoun, Clay, Randolph, and Quitman.
Each week our staff strives to provide our readers with current and objective news of the communities which we serve, along with several local columnists, a church page with directory, and local school news and sports.
Founded in 1983 by Allene Nelson and dedicated to Community Pride, Promotion, and Progress, The Southern Tribune has served as the legal organ for Clay and Randolph counties, publishing legal ads for those counties and their cities.
On December 2, 2019, Charles and Roseiline Mathews, with Sowega Publishing LLC, purchased The Southern Tribune. It’s an honor for us to carry the family business forward.
