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.
Cornell Chronicle
Prior to the founding of the "Chronicle" in 1969, campus news was reported by the "Cornell Era" and then by "The Cornell Daily Sun". During the Willard Straight Hall takeover in April 1969, the campus learned of unfolding events through the student-edited "Sun", the student radio station WVBR, and the independently owned "Cornell Alumni News." However, Cornell's administration, most notably then-Vice President for Public Affairs Steven Muller, was dissatisfied because those media reported events in a manner that was somewhat critical of the administration. Over the summer, plans for the "Chronicle" were put in place and it debuted on September 25, 1969. The "Chronicle"s first office was in the basement of the Edmund Ezra Day Hall administration building, and Kal Lindenburg, a "Sun" alumnus, was hired as its first Managing Editor. It was printed every Wednesday during the school year as a newsprint broadside on the presses of the "Ithaca Journal".
