The paper started as the "Freeport Facts" months after the founding of Freeport, Texas by the Freeport Sulphur Company in 1912. One year later, the paper was acquired by C.P. Kendall, Sr. who also owned newspapers in Port Aransas, and the "Angleton Times" in Angleton.

Separate area newspapers, the "Brazoria County Review", "Velasco World", and "West Columbia Light" were acquired by businessman W.D. Johnston. In 1949, He then merged the papers into "The Daily Review". In 1951, Southern Newspapers Inc. bought an interest in The Daily Review. The next year, it purchased The Freeport Facts. Merging the acquisitions into "The Daily Facts-Review", Southern Newspapers later changed the name to The Brazosport Facts. It eventually became the largest daily newspaper for the entire area.

In 1976, The Facts moved its headquarters from Freeport to neighboring Clute, Texas where it remains today.
