Goodloe Sutton was the former owner, publisher and editor of The Democrat-Reporter, a weekly newspaper in Marengo County.
NEW YORK, NY: Goodloe Sutton, a newspaper editor from Alabama, presents the International Press Freedom Award in recognition of Agence France-Presse Eritrean correspondent Ruth Simon 24 November during a ceremony sponsored by the "Committee To Protect Journalists" in New York. AFP PHOTO Stan HONDA A rural Alabama newspaper editor once praised nationally for his investigative reporting, then later attacked for writing a pro-Ku Klux Klan editorial, has died.
In 2019, his reputation soured nationally as he published a controversial editorial calling for the Ku Klux Klan to be revived. Sutton’s family had owned and operated the weekly Democrat-Reporter based in Linden from 1917 until 2019. His father, Robert E. Sutton, had bought the paper in 1917 and served as editor. Sutton’s wife, the former Jean Rodgers, who had met him at the University of Southern Mississippi, had played a critical role in the investigative reporting the newspaper did. After she died of cancer in 2003, the newspaper began to lose credibility, some Linden officials said.
The newspaper’s investigation prompted a federal investigation that led to the arrest of 68 people in a drug raid.
