History

The first paper in Miami was The Miami Weekly Chief, founded by Charles Dagnet and John Warren, with a circulation of about 100. [3] Founded in 1892, the publication was purchased by L. Dragoo two years later and folded into his newly launched effort, The Weekly Herald. [3] [4] In 1897, The Record was founded by H.C. Brandon; the two Democratic weeklies would be merged with the Herald to form the MiamiRecord-Herald in 1904. [3] [5] The Record-Herald went to a daily publication schedule in 1917. [3] A subsequent merger with the Republican Miami District Daily News in 1924 produced the earliest News-Record. [3] [6] From 1928 to 1962, it was the Miami Daily News-Record. On September 16, 1962, it began publishing under the banner Miami News-Record. [7]

In 1989, Woodson Newspapers was sold to Boone-Narrangansett Publishing. [8]

In January 2000, American Consolidated Media bought the News-Record from Boone Publishing. [9]

In 2017, the News-Record reduced its publication schedule to two days a week. [11]

In 2021, the News-Record was sold to Reid Newspapers by Gannett, the successor to GateHouse Media. [12]

<i>New-York Tribune</i> Defunct American newspaper

The New-York Tribune was an American newspaper founded in 1841 by editor Horace Greeley. It bore the moniker New-York Daily Tribune from 1842 to 1866 before returning to its original name. From the 1840s through the 1860s it was the dominant newspaper first of the American Whig Party, then of the Republican Party. The paper achieved a circulation of approximately 200,000 in the 1850s, making it the largest daily paper in New York City at the time. The Tribune's editorials were widely read, shared, and copied in other city newspapers, helping to shape national opinion. It was one of the first papers in the North to send reporters, correspondents, and illustrators to cover the campaigns of the American Civil War. It continued as an independent daily newspaper until 1924, when it merged with the New York Herald. The resulting New York Herald Tribune remained in publication until 1966.

The Newspaper Preservation Act of 1970 was an Act of the United States Congress, signed by President Richard Nixon, authorizing the formation of joint operating agreements among competing newspaper operations within the same media market area. It exempted newspapers from certain provisions of antitrust laws. Its drafters argued that this would allow the survival of multiple daily newspapers in a given urban market where circulation was declining. This exemption stemmed from the observation that the alternative is usually for at least one of the newspapers, generally the one published in the evening, to cease operations altogether.
