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.
San Francisco Chronicle Magazine
The San Francisco Chronicle Magazine is a Sunday magazine published on the first Sunday of every month as an insert in the "San Francisco Chronicle". The current magazine was born out of the ashes of "The San Francisco Examiner Magazine" when the staff of the "Chronicle" and "The San Francisco Examiner" were combined in 2000 following the sale of the "Examiner".
