The Ventura County Star is a newspaper published in Camarillo, California.   It was founded in 1925 by the John P. Scripps Newspaper Group, which merged with E. W. Scripps in 1986.   Around 1936, the Star acquired the Ventura Free Press (which was founded in 1875), and began publishing as the Ventura County Star-Free Press in 1938. It dropped the Free-Press addition in November 1994.   It is now owned by the E. W. Scripps Company.
