'The Post and Courier, Charleston, South Carolina's primary daily publication, stands proud as an established entity in the world of print, tracing its origins back to three separate newspapers: the Charleston Courier (est. 1803), the Charleston Daily News (est. 1865), and The Evening Post (est. 1894). Its connection to the Courier allows it to claim the title of being the South's oldest daily newspaper and one of the longest-running in the United States. This prominent daily falls under the umbrella of Evening Post Industries, part of the holdings owned by the Manigault family of Charleston - a lineage tracing back to Peter Manigault. Currently, the Manigault-run companies are led by Mr. Pierre Manigault as president.'
