The Virginian-Pilot

''The Virginian-Pilot'' is a daily newspaper based in Norfolk, Virginia. Commonly known as ''The Pilot'', it is Virginia's largest daily.〔 It serves the five cities of South Hampton Roads as well as several smaller towns across southeast Virginia and northeast North Carolina. It has been a locally owned, family enterprise since its founding in 1865, at the close of the American Civil War. It is known for establishing positive narratives within the community, especially around race relations.
==History==
''The Virginian-Pilot'' and its sister afternoon edition, the ''Ledger-Star'' (which ceased publication in 1995) were created by Samuel L. Slover as the result of several mergers of papers dating back to 1868. Slover's nephew Frank Batten Sr. became publisher at age 27 in 1954. He expanded the ''Virginian-Pilots parent company, which soon evolved into Landmark Communications and later Landmark Media Enterprises, by acquiring other newspapers and radio stations and by creating The Weather Channel, now owned by a group of investors led by NBC Universal.
In the 1929, editor Louis Jaffe received the ''Virginian-Pilots first Pulitzer Prize, for an editorial which condemned lynching. Jaffe mentored the paper's next editor, Lenoir Chambers, who in 1960 received the paper's second Pulitzer for his editorials on desegregation. The paper was one of the few in Virginia to publicly support the end of Jim Crow.
The paper was among the first available online as a part of the Compuserve experiment in early 1980s where the paper and 10 others around the country transmitted text versions of stories daily to Compuserve's host computers in Ohio.
Frank Batten Jr. became publisher in 1991 and expanded on digitizing the paper. In 1993 ''The Virginian-Pilot'' was one of the first newspapers in the country to launch a sister website, Pilotonline.com. Batten Jr. stepped down as the paper's publisher, becoming Landmark Communications' Chairman and CEO. "Dee" Carpenter became publisher in 1995, followed by Bruce Bradley in 2005, Maurice Jones in 2008, David Mele in 2012 and Patricia Richardson in 2014.
