Delete, without prejudice against recreation of a redirect to SaltWire Network (the owner). Newspapers are not inherently notable just because they exist, per WP:NMEDIA, but must state more than just "it exists and here's a glancing namecheck of it in one source about the parent company to prove it". If we had the sources to actually write a little bit of real content about its history, then this would be a keep — but the only such source I can find is from a sister publication inside the SaltWire umbrella, which means it's not a fully independent source for the purposes of establishing its notability.
