San Francisco Chronicle
The San Francisco Chronicle is a newspaper serving primarily the San Francisco Bay Area of the U.S. state of California. It was founded in 1865 as "The Daily Dramatic Chronicle" by teenage brothers Charles de Young and Michael H. de Young. The paper is currently owned by the Hearst Corporation, which bought it from the de Young family in 2000. It is the only major daily paper covering the city and county of San Francisco.
Larchmont Chronicle
In 1963, two young women canvassed the Larchmont area in Los Angeles to start a community newspaper. The first issue of the Larchmont Chronicle was mailed to 10,000 families in the upper income areas of Hancock Park and Windsor Square. The women, Dawne Goodwin and Jane Gilman, secured 28 advertisers for the first 12-page issue. They each earned $250 on the first issue, and the paper has been in the black ever since. Dawne Goodwin retired in 1997, moved to Fallbrook, California, and died on October 14, 2012. The Chronicle later expanded its coverage and is now hand-delivered in a plastic bag to 21,000 households. On May 1, 2015, Gilman sold the paper to attorney and neighborhood resident John Welborne; Gilman remains a contributing editor.
