Whoops, not that one

You know you're in America when you google the Dominion Post and it brings up the Dominion Post in Morgantown,  West Virginia....

Home town for my extended family and a lovely place it is, too. Can't remember whether the local paper is better than its namesake here but that wouldn't be difficult.

I worked for the Dom at the time it was merged as the DomPost. I recall I was one of the few people there then with years of internet experience who could do proper internet searches. It took me less than five minutes to discover the Morgantown Dominion Post.

The embarrassed DomPost management (embarrassed by my showing them what I had found) said they had chosen the name Dominion Post after being assured no other newspaper anywhere had that name.
