Media in the San Francisco Bay Area
James King of William began publishing the "Daily Evening Bulletin" in San Francisco in October, 1855 and built it into the highest circulation paper in the city. He criticized a city supervisor named James P. Casey, who, on the afternoon of the story about him, ran in the paper, shot and mortally wounded King. Casey was lynched by the early vigilante committee. The "Morning Call" was established and began publishing in December 1856, and later merged with the "Bulletin" to become the long-running "Call-Bulletin". The "San Francisco Chronicle" debuted in June, 1865 as the "Dramatic Chronicle", founded by Charles and M.H. de Young aged 19 and 17.
Chung Sai Yat Po
Chung Sai Yat Po (), also known as China West Daily and Zhong Sai Yat Bo was a Chinese language newspaper founded by Ng Poon Chew (伍盤照) and published in San Francisco, California from 1900 to 1951. It was a major Chinese language daily newspaper in San Francisco and helped to shape the Chinese community in San Francisco's Chinatown. The paper helped the Chinese to “break through their social and cultural isolation” to become Americans and reduced the gap between the Chinese community and mainstream American society. It was a financially independent and non-party-affiliated newspaper that cultivated discussions on community economic and social development. "Chung Sai Yat Po" was one of the longest running and most popular Chinese language daily newspapers in the United States.
