The Facts was founded in 1913 by a printer named Roy Ruffin. The newspaper s sections include sports, living, local and national news, living and opinion. In June 1956, Jim Nabors became business manager of The Facts, and a year later, he was named publisher. Nabors was instrumental in seeing The Facts grow from a circulation of 2,200 to nearly 23,000 and become the major daily in Brazoria County. In August 1976, The Facts moved from its downtown Freeport, Texas, quarters to its present building in Clute, Texas. Nabors said he chose the site because he remembered it to be one of the few spots not flooded by the high water during Hurricane Carla. The Facts is a Southern Newspapers publication.
