Re: Guarantees by South Carolina Subsidiaries of The McClatchy Company

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as South Carolina counsel to The McClatchy Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Company’s three South Carolina subsidiaries, which are The State Media Company f/k/a The State Publishing Company and Columbia State, Inc., East Coast Newspapers, Inc. and The Sun Publishing Company, Inc. (the “S. C. Subsidiaries”), in connection with the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of a registration statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Company is registering under the Securities Act an aggregate of up to $875,000,000 in principal amount of its 11.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 (the “Exchange Notes”) to be issued in exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) for a like principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 11.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 (the “Outstanding Notes”) upon the terms set forth in the Registration Statement and the letter of transmittal filed as an exhibit thereto. The Outstanding Notes are guaranteed by the S.C. Subsidiaries (the “Outstanding Guarantees”). The Registration Statement also covers issuance of the guarantees by the S.C. Subsidiaries of the Exchange Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer (the “Exchange Notes Guarantees”). The Exchange Notes and the Exchange Notes Guarantees to be issued pursuant to the Exchange Offer are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.” The Outstanding Notes and Outstanding Guarantees were issued, and the Securities will be issued, pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of February 11, 2010 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee.

We understand that the S.C. Subsidiaries are engaged solely in the publication of newspapers.
